That's the thing. I got the email yesterday evening after 8:00. I think it was blowing smoke.

Bills Still Alive as of the evening of 5/23

I got an email from the SREC reporting on legislative deadlines and certain bills. The following gun-related bills are said still to be a priority. But they don't say the ones in House Calendars have a realistic chance. The email seems to be a way to make us think they're on top of things.

SB 16 Nichols/Huffman
Relating to the removal of a fee for the issuance of an original, duplicate, modified, or renewed license to carry a handgun.
Sent to Governor, 5/15

Bills In House Calendars…
*HB 1911 White
Relating to granting authority to carry a firearm to an unlicensed person who otherwise meets certain requirements for a handgun license and to related criminal offenses; creating a criminal offense.
House Committee report sent to Calendars, 4/26
*Bill enacting priority in its entirety*
Bills In House Committees…

*HB 375 Stickland/Schafer
Relating to providing for the carrying of handguns without a license and to related offenses and penalties.
Left pending in Homeland Security & Public Safety Committee, 3/28
