So the Republicans have been in control of both chambers of the Congress and the executive branch for 23 months now... when are they getting the national concealed carry reciprocity act passed? Just askin'...

The bill dies when Congress adjournes in a few days.  It's all up to Young and Beck now.

Never fear! Now that the Democrats control the House... it's being re-introduced (today)! I guess the Republicans needed a Democrat majority in the House in order to make some progress in the Senate. Or... maybe now they'll do some serious grandstanding about how necessary it is and how they're so for it... now that it'll never pass again in the House.  SMH 

Rep. Hudson Reintroduces National Reciprocity on Day One of New Congress

https://www.breitbart.com/2nd-amendment/2019/01/03/rep-hudson-reintroduces-national-reciprocity-day-one-new-congress/

Rep. Richard Hudson (R-NC) reintroduced national reciprocity for concealed carry on the first day of the 116th Congress.

Hudson introduced carry reciprocity legislation in 2014 but got tremendous momentum with the introduction of the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act on January 3, 2017. The legislation passed the House on December 6, 2017, and was never taken up by the Republican-controlled Senate.

Why can't this one or other states be forced to honor the CCW permits of other states the same way ALL states have been forced to issue and honor other states marriage licenses (Obergefell v. Hodges 2015). If you read the SCOTUS majority decision, changing a few words to reference 2A, it can be the exact same ruling.

Didn't they control both the house and senate, so the time to pass it is now gone.  Or because it already passed the majority vote, it now moves to the senate which we still control.

It was reintroduced so would have to pass in the House again which it most likely won't.  If it does then would need 60 votes to pass in the Senate which it doesnt have.  On the high end projection  they might have maybe 56 but that's very optimistic.

Odds of it passing get worse for the rest of the decade.

The more I look at the restrictive CCW laws in HI, CA, NJ, MA, NY etc, and in light of the fact that we are all law abiding people who would never dream of doing anything illegal, I have come to this conclusion.  If anyone living  here wants to be able to legally carry a firearm for SD in their lifetime, you better plan to move to a free state. The only dimmest of hope is SCOTUS rules in our favor.  If that happens, can HI appeal a SCOTUS decision?

I'm pretty sure there is no further appeal after a SCOTUS ruling, except in the form of another lawsuit that would approach the question from a slightly different point of law.

If not, can our legislature take 10 years to write laws that comply?

When the Illinois ban on concealed/open carry was invalidated, the legislature was given 180 days to write a law conforming to the dictates of the court re the right to carry... they produced a law on (surprise) the 180th day.

But even if there is a relatively short time limit to produce a conforming law here in Hawaii, should that ever happen, it's likely (inevitable?) that the law will be highly restrictive, maybe to the point of not conforming, and certainly be subject to likely further lawsuits. Does anyone imagine that whatever law might be crafted would be as far as possible from permitless carry (now in effect in 12 states with two more about to join the club)? The legislators here know something about the incompetence and irresponsibility of Hawaii residents that makes it necessary to deem them criminals should they exercise their right to bear arms... I've asked them what they know, and how they know it, but they refuse to tell me.

TLDR: Yeah, if you want to (legally) carry, move to the United States (except downstate New York, Maryland, New Jersey, and parts of coastal California).

they should've voted on it long time ago.  what a waste.  that was one of my main points of voting for Trump, that and he's not HRC.
what a FAIL!!!!!
