Allen Introduces National Right-to-Carry in Senate

From the NRA:

SENATE VERSION OF NATIONAL RIGHT-TO-CARRY BILL INTRODUCED

U.S. Senator George Allen (R-Va.) recently introduced S. 3275 - the Senate version of H.R. 4547, a national Right-to-Carry (RTC) reciprocity bill that would provide national reciprocity for state carry licensees. This legislation would allow any person with a valid carry permit or license issued by a state to carry a concealed firearm in any other state if they meet certain criteria. The bill would not create a federal licensing system; it would simply require the states to recognize each other's carry permits, just as they recognize drivers' licenses.

This is an excellent idea that would make life much easier for those who travel frequently. As things stand now, reciprocity is patchwork. Senator Allen's bill would eliminate that confusion.

Now why can't they do that for law licenses?

Comments:
Rob;
This is great! Would to God it would pass. Senator Allen is looking more impressive by the day to me.

I'd love for there to be automatic reciprocity for CC in such a way that if you have ever gotten a CC permit in one State, you have it in every other State forever.
