Kansas Lawmakers Pass Concealed Carry Bill
(CNSNews.com) - The Kansas Legislature has passed a concealed carry bill that will allow law-abiding citizens to carry concealed firearms for their personal protection. A Second Amendment group called it a "courageous" move that proves Kansas lawmakers are willing to "butt heads with the anti-gun media and the shrill voices against self-defense." The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (CCRKBA) said Gov. Kathleen Sebelius is expected to veto the bill, which passed the state House of Representatives on a 90-33 vote and the Senate on a 29-11 vote - "veto-proof margins," the bill's sponsor said. "If the governor carries through on her threat to once again leave her constituents, friends and neighbors defenseless against criminals, we hope the Legislature swiftly and decisively overrides that veto," said CCRKBA Chairman Alan M. Gottlieb. CCRKBA is encouraging Kansas gun owners to call the governor's office and "urge her to do the right thing."
