2nd Concealed Gun Bill Surfaces

A Senate committee wasn’t enthusiastic, but agreed this morning to introduce legislation proposed by Sen. Marv Hagedorn, R-Meridian, to revamp Idaho’s concealed weapon laws. Changes include removing the current exemption from concealed-weapon permit laws for state legislators and other state and local elected officials, and clarifying that people can carry concealed weapons without a permit outside city limits in Idaho – that’s currently allowed with some restrictions, but Hagedorn’s bill makes the wording more clear and eliminates a requirement that the person be “engaged in lawful hunting, fishing, trapping or other lawful outdoor activity”/ Betsy Russell , Eye on Boise.

Question: Is this “constitutional carry” bill any better than the last one?
