Why waste legislative time on sucking up to Veterans? Wouldn't the time, and "legislative ink" be better spent on REAL improvements"Make your voice heard! State Senator Lou Terhar has introduced SB81 which serves to do the following:
-Waives the payment of the license fee that is otherwise required to obtain a concealed handgun license for applicants who are active or reserve members of the armed forces of the United States, or who have retired from or were honorably discharged from such military service.
-Caps the waiver of license fees described in the preceding dot point at $1,500,000 each calendar year.
-Permits an applicant for a concealed handgun license who has retired from or has been honorably discharged from military service to submit evidence of the applicant's military service as proof of competency regardless of the date that the applicant retired or was honorably discharged.
-Permits a licensee who wishes to renew a concealed handgun license to do so at any time before the expiration date of the license."
like , oh,let me think... CONSTITUTIONAL CARRY?
Or how about eliminating the "Duty to notify"?
Or how about reducing the fee to $20 for everyone?
Too much Military worship here. What about the MAJORITY who where never drafted or enlisted?
Incidentally, I'm an Honorably discharged Veteran.
