So here's the rub. Some of the members of the HPSC feel that the word “carry” needs to be removed before this bill can get out of committee. [More]Who thinks like this? I mean, really...
Anyway, Iowans, you have a couple hours to make your concerns known and your contacts are at the link.

Although not a done deal, this should come out of the committee and pass the house but I take nothing for granted when it comes to politics. In the senate, it has a far less chance of passing with it being ruled by Sen Gronstal.
We have our share of hoplophobes that have the megaphone of the Des Moines Register newspaper on their side. Gun bans are being passed throughout the state by cities and counties, in direct contradiction of state law. (Our attorney general issued an opinion stating it's okay, law be damned.)
The gun rights battle has been even more active since the first of the year here.
The amendment process to the state Constitution: it must be passed by both the house and the senate twice, (this session and the next session after the next election) and then voted on by the citizens.
It's never easy here in Iowa, David. Thanks for helping bring it to others' attention.
