Northeast Concealed Carry Act

Section 1

Any citizen of the Northeast region who has completed a safety course on gun use may apply for a license to conceal and carry a handgun on their person in public areas. These licenses must be renewed every 5 years.

Section 2

The Governor may enter into reciprocity agreement with other regions regarding concealed carry of handguns. If such an agreement is entered, concealed carry licenses issued by such regions shall be considered valid in the Northeast region.

Section 3

Any citizen of another region with which the Northeast region does not have a reciprocity agreement, may apply for a conceal carry license in the Northeast region. All rules for Northeast citizens regarding these licenses shall apply.

Section 4

Any person who has been convicted of a violent crime or robbery may not receive a licence unless they have committed no crimes above a misdemeanour for five years in a row after having served their sentence and

A - having been legally employed for at least two years
B - having been married to someone meeting the requirements of A.
OR
C - being above the legally defined retirement age.

at the time of application.

Section 5

The cost of application and renewal of a license shall be $50. This money will go to maintaining the infrastructure to carry out applications and to pay for FBI background checks.

Section 6

Concealed carry of handguns may be disallowed in government owned buildings, including but not limited to court houses and schools. The policy for each building or building type may be determined by the government responsible for the building, be it federal, regional, state, or local.

Section 7

Private property owners may disallow concealed carry on their own property.

May the Governor please open up debate on this act ASAP? Thank you.

I advise switching this with the updated version, Colin. It has many added and changed provisions that are important to many.
