Congress must take action on gun safety

A measure known as the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017, would require states to recognize concealed gun carry permits from other states.

The intention of concealed carry reciprocity is to allow people legally permitted to carry concealed weapons to do so throughout all states, akin to a driver's license.

In a statement Thursday, he said the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act preempts "common-sense gun laws".

This is not hyperbolic.

The House of Representatives approved legislation Wednesday that authorizes gun owners who possess hide and carry permits to travel with their weapons to other jurisdictions that issue such permits.

CLAIM: "The bill is being rammed through, without a hearing, in a very nontransparent process, and it will be passed by attaching it to the popular concealed carry reciprocity bill which already has enough votes to pass on its own".

And Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer warned us in October: This proposal is particularly unsafe to NY because the Empire State applies some of the most thorough background screenings on concealed carry permit applicants in the country. Please include your name, town and phone number, for confirmation purposes. "This bill, will allow a law-abiding citizen to carry concealed gun only if they are not federally prohibited from possessing or receiving a firearm".

Shares in Poundland owner Steinhoff slump 60% over 'accounting irregularities'
In October, Steinhoff bought back 78 million shares, a deal handled by Johannesburg-based PSG Capital. It said it would also investigate whether previous financial results need to be corrected.


Canelli cited the gun violence in Hudson experienced over the summer, and the several shootings that took place, to argue firearms are not the problem.

The bill is a top priority of the National Rifle Association.

Hypocrisy and politics have always been willing dance partners, and this bill tramples the principle of states' rights that the Republican Party likes to trot out out when it suits its own ends; only six Democrats voted for the bill.

U.S. Rep. John Faso, R-19, helped pass legislation that would allow people with concealed carry permits to bring those weapons into other states that allow concealed carry.

He said more than half the states recognize permits from every other state, and states and municipalities could still restrict where guns are carried in their communities. "It is shameful that in a year with two of the worst mass shootings on record, the only response from Congress is eroding sensible gun laws".

Former Congresswoman Gabby Giffords called the vote "unthinkable".

A woman who survived the mass shooting in Las Vegas is describing in wrenching detail of how she remained by the side of one of the victims as he died. "We will do all we can to ensure this bill doesn't see the light of day in the Senate".
