A bill working its way to President Trump’s desk could change that, by allowing gun owners who are allowed to carry concealed guns in their home states to exercise the rights in any other state that does not prohibit concealed carry. “Our Second Amendment right doesn’t disappear when we cross state lines,” Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, said last month when he introduced a Senate bill that closely tracks one introduced in the House. The National Rifle Association said confusing and conflicting state laws can ensnare law-abiding gun owners. The proposed law would not supersede state laws or establish national standards for concealed carry, advocates assure. Critics claim reciprocity laws will undercut states that believe public safety is linked to strict gun control.
