Rapier,

Two years ago this same legislation FAILED by 2 votes in the Senate; Arlen Specter was one of the NO votes when it failed with 58 of the needed 60 votes. The legislation was attached to a "Must Pass" bill and would have had Obama's signature.

Article IV, Section 1 of the U. S. Constitution says, "Full Faith and Credit shall be given in each state to the public Acts, Records, and judicial Proceeings of every other State:.... " This is why your driver's license from your state is recognized in every other state you drive through on your two week vacation. Your Marrriage license, dog license and divorce decree is currently recognized in every other state, BUT not your Carry Permit! This National CCW Reciprocity Law is merely recognizing Article IV of the Constitution.
