| Committee: Crime Prevention | |
| Video Coverage: Minnesota Citizens Personal Protection Act of 2001 (Handgun Permits) | |
| About the Bill: | |
| This proposal would allow more Minnesotans to carry concealed weapons by
easing the procedure for getting a permit. It requires Minnesota sheriffs to
grant concealed-weapon permits within 15 days as long as the applicant does
not fail a background check. Testimony was heard on both sides of the issue.
Senator Pat Pariseau, R-Farmington, authored Senate File 1395.
The bill failed to pass the committee on a voice vote. |
