Done, I believe this is a better option than a Federally issued CCW. I'd like to see how some of the Dems from pro-gun states vote on this. Anyone have any idea what the actual numbers are of reps and senators who will back this?

Well, just the threat of this legislation my compel the individual states to start signing reciprocity agreements with everyone else to keep the feds out of the kitchen.

And I might hit the power ball jackpot this week.

Personally, I would like to see this happen if it stays as written. Driver requirements are different in every state, yet the license is recognized, why not CC.

Colorado driving rule. Two vehicles that meet on a one lane mountain road, the vehicle going uphill has the right of way, the vehicle going down is required to back up until a suitable spot to move over to have enough room for the vehicles to pass is located. I kind of doubt that Texas, Kansas and other flat states have that mentioned anywhere.

For the time being I'm much more comfortable with the FL legislature defining my rights.
I agree in that any time the feds get involved in anything we need to be careful because more than likely we will be getting screwed. This is just the first step in them taking over the carry laws and leading to a national CWP. Be very careful of what you wish for.

Senator David Vitter (R-LA) has filed a pro-gun amendment to HR 980, and it
could be voted on as early as tomorrow!
Okay, question time young'uns. So this is a proposed amendment to HR 980. Does anyone here know what the main body of HR 980 is? Does anyone even care? I'm just sayin'....

Unfortunately, it seems the system works this way, by combining numerous issues into one bill. Clever legislators get their amendments passed by burying them somewhere.

I quickly read through HR980 and could not find Vitter's amendment. Did you see the language anywhere?
