Senate Bill 24 has been assigned to the Criminal Justice Committee. We will provide information on the first hearing for SB24 as it becomes available. This is a VERY good sign that the Senate intends to move this legislation as soon as the House passes it. Senate Bill 130 was never added to a committee schedule in the last General Assembly, and under Dick Finan's leadership, the Senate only moved on CCW reform after it would be too late for the House to reject changes. This year's Senate President, Doug White, has been quoted as saying that body will be ready to act as soon as the House does, and this scheduling lends clear evidence that he means it.
