Iowa House passes bill allowing Iowans to carry, buy guns without permits<\/a><\/p>\n

The Iowa House has passed a bill allowing Iowans to carry and purchase firearms without a permit, sending the measure to the Senate for consideration.<\/p>\n

It’s the first time that a full chamber of the Iowa Legislature has passed such a measure, although gun rights advocates have pushed for years to remove the state’s gun permit requirements.<\/p>\n

The House passed the measure,\u00a0House File 756<\/a>, on a 60-37 vote Wednesday night after several hours of debate. Every Republican representative, as well as Democratic Rep. Wes Breckenridge,\u00a0supported the bill<\/a>, while all other Democrats were opposed.\u00a0Similar legislation<\/a> has passed through committee in the Iowa Senate but has not received a floor vote……….<\/p>\n

South Carolina: Open Carry Bill Passes Critical Vote<\/a><\/p>\n

[March 17th], the House voted 82-33 to advance House Bill 3094 after second reading. HB 3094 still faces a third reading before the House can vote to pass it. The progress so far has been made possible by Rep. Bobby Cox showing his strong leadership and unwavering commitment to the Second Amendment by guiding this bill.<\/strong>\u00a0Substantial amendments were unnecessary, as a standalone\u00a0constitutional carry bill<\/a>\u00a0is also working its way through the legislative process and, in a press conference today, pro-gun lawmakers affirmed their commitment to pass it.<\/p>\n

House Bill 3094<\/a>\u00a0allows citizens who hold a concealed weapons permit,\u00a0to carry a handgun in the manner they choose. Currently, South Carolina is one of just five states that does\u00a0not explicitly allow open carry,\u00a0among them Illinois, New York, and California. Self-defense situations are difficult to predict and everyone has different circumstances. It is unreasonable for the law to impose a one-size-fits-all method of carrying a handgun for self-defense.<\/p>\n
