Republican Sens. John Cornyn, R-Texas, and Bill Hagerty, R-Tenn., today will introduce
new Second Amendment reforms that would allow state-issued concealed carry permits
to be recognized in other states that allow concealed carry.

The bill, the Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act, is backed by more than 40
of their Senate colleagues, including Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., and
Senate Minority Whip John Thune, R-S.D.

"I’m proud to support law-abiding gun owners across America with this commonsense
legislation that would let them concealed carry in all states that allow it," said Cornyn, who
sits on the Senate judiciary, finance and intelligence committees.

"This legislation strengthens two of our most fundamental constitutional protections – the
Second Amendment’s right of citizens to keep and bear arms and the Tenth Amendment’s
right of states to make laws best-suited for their residents," he said.

Unfortunately the Republicans don't have the votes to override a Presidential veto.
