I have heard many people ask why we can't carry a concealed gun in other states with our home state permit. Why can't it be like a drivers license. Well, there is a thing called the Driver's License Compact (DLC) which makes it legal to drive in any state with you r home state driver's license.
Unfortunately there is no such compact, act, or law allowing this at this time. Senator John Cornyn (R) od Texas has introduced Senate Bill S498 Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act od 2015. It was introduced on the Senate floor in February, read twice, and assigned to the Senate Judiciary Committee, where it is now. It has 16 co-sponsors, all Republican except one, Sen. Joe Manchin (D) of West Virginia. This similar bill was narrowly defeated last year, but now the Republicans control the Senate, the House and the Judiciary Committee. So, it may just stand a chance of going through. The real question is , will Obama Veto it, if passed, and can the Congress override his veto on this or anything. We will have to wait and see........
