Bill > HB5182

This bill allows security personnel employed by the State Treasurer to carry a concealed firearm while performing their official duties, provided they receive written authorization from the Treasurer, are legally permitted to possess a firearm, hold a concealed handgun license, and have completed a firearms training program equivalent to that required for law enforcement officers, with annual requalification. The bill also states that the State Treasurer can reimburse these security personnel for the costs associated with this training and requalification, and it offers liability protection to the state, its agencies, and employees acting in an official capacity from being held responsible for any good-faith actions or omissions of the Treasurer's security personnel while they are on duty.
