I sure would prefer the House version of SB1408 (HB 435).... SB 1408 in its current version would require 20 hours of additional training and would not provide defense to prosecution for carrying past 30.06 and 30.07 signs.

I'm sorry, I misread your post and thought the hearing was this morning. I'll make sure I get to the computer first tomorrow.

SB 1408 left pending.

Seems there is more than a little concern with the training requirement among the committee members..
Hopefully the training requirement gets gutted.
Even better, hopefully HB 435 /Engrossed finds its way unchanged through the Senate instead.
