AB 357
"License to Carry Concealed Firearm"
Author: Assemblyman Steve Knight
Status: Bill failed to pass Public Safety Committee
Description:
Bills hearing calendared for April 21, 2009. Room 126 State Capitol building.
Bill pulled by author and made into a two year bill.
Words from the Author: "This bill converts California's concealed weapons permitting system from a 'may' issue to a 'shall' issue. More than 30 states have moved to a 'shall' issue state. The undisputed facts are that the expanded issuance of concealed weapons around the country has not resulted in problems or crimes by permit holders. This proposal would solve the issue of arbitrary standards, and create a fair and equitable process for all applicants."
