Concealed Carry Outright Recognition Act
Summary

Did you know the NRA--the
National Rifle Association-was the corporate co-chair in

This Act permits a state to recognize a concealed carry permit or license from
another state without requiring reciprocal action by that state.
Model Legislation

1. A concealed carry license or permit issued by another state or political
subdivision of another state shall authorize the person in whose name the license
or permit is issued to carry concealed firearms in this state. This section shall
apply to a license or permit holder from another state only while the license or
permit holder is not a resident of this state. A license or permit holder from
another state shall carry the firearm in compliance with the laws of this state.
2. The Statewide Officeholder or State Law Enforcement Agency shall maintain
and publish a current list of states that meet the requirements of subsection (1),
and publish a quarterly report on the progress related to both negotiations and
concluded agreements with other states.

From CMD: "Concealed Carry" proposals are very controversial, especially because many cities have made
it a crime to carry a concealed firearm, due to public safety concerns. Traditionally, law enforcement groups-such as police and sheriff's groups-- have opposed legislation to allow permits or otherwise authorize the
concealment of firearms and have urged governors to veto such statutes as well.
