From what I understand, the House bill will still not protect those gun owners who are residents of states with unconstitutional gun laws who have CCW permits from other states. So if you are a resident of FL with a CCW permit who is driving traveling in NJ, you are protected if this law passes the Senate (doubtful). But if you are a NJ resident with a CCW from another state, you are not protected and subject to arrest and imprisonment.

. Gee, great law. More “unequal” protection under lawlessness.

Actually, if you look at the language: (pasting from an earlier post)

reading the text of the bill, it says :

“...subject only to the requirements
of this section, a person who is not prohibited by Federal law from possessing, transporting,
shipping, or receiving a firearm, who is carrying a valid identification document
containing a photograph of the person, and, may possess or carry a concealed handgun (other than
a machinegun or destructive device) that has been shipped or transported in interstate
or foreign commerce, in any State that—
‘‘(1) has a statute under which residents of the State may apply for a license
or permit to carry a concealed firearm; or
‘‘(2) does not prohibit the carrying of concealed firearms by residents of the
State for lawful purposes.”

That looks like the phrase “ who is carrying a valid license or
permit which is issued pursuant to the law of a State and which permits the person
to carry a concealed firearm or is entitled to carry a concealed firearm in the State
in which the person resides” means that a CCW from *ANY* state is valid in all REGARDLESS of if the person is a RESIDENT of the state that issued...

Does anybody else read this the same way?

A conservative in occupied California (who has no option of going anywhere for the next couple of decades)..
