No need, it is already accepted as ID for voting.

Glad to see this is (outwardly) taking priority over fixing the HB 228 debacle.

I have no objection to this, of course. Yet I wonder where a bill like this is coming from. I don't recall this subject even being on the OFCC radar.


Edit to add: And I wouldn't spend any of our limited resources on it since we have permitless carry on the radar.

It came from a legislator's personal experience being denied the ability to use his, as I understand it. Nothing that OFCC has pushed, but yes we've seen it in previous legislative sessions.

Yes yes. This bill should sail through both chambers and be signed like, yesterday.
Attach ANYTHING gun-sy to it, little alone a needed necessary ^^ admitted-to fix, the bill WILL become bogged down.

Right before election cycle, quick fix.

After election cycle, slow fix or , no fix.

And again, I will be perfectly happy to be wrong. Perhaps this is THE bill the fix can be hidden er, attached to.
Acquisitions thus far:

-Slingshot
-Butter knife
-Soda straw and peas
-Sharpened pencil
-Newspaper roll
--water balloon (*diversionary*)

Yeah, I'm that good

Man, that's like Warp 9 speed for the Ohio House! Only 8-9 months, and it moved forward an inch!
Quit worrying, hide your gun well, shut up, and CARRY that handgun!
