Bill > SB00269

This bill proposes to amend Chapter 529 of the state's general statutes to require the state to pursue and establish reciprocity agreements for concealed carry pistol and revolver permits. In practical terms, this means the state would work to create legal arrangements with other states that would allow individuals who have a valid concealed carry permit from this state to have their permit recognized and honored when they travel to those other states, and vice versa. Reciprocity agreements are legal arrangements between jurisdictions that mutually recognize each other's permits or licenses, in this case specifically for carrying handguns. The primary goal of the bill is to expand the geographic validity of state-issued concealed carry permits, making it easier for permit holders to legally carry their firearms across state lines without having to obtain multiple permits or risk legal complications when traveling between states.
