State Assemblyman Joe Danielsen has written what supporters call the strictest set of laws regulating the concealed carrying of guns in the country. (File photo.)
A bill whose supporters say will create the strictest concealed-carry law in the country – and who fully expect it to be challenged in court – was introduced in the state Legislature on October 13.
Authored and sponsored by state Assemblyman Joe Danielsen (D-17), the bill would require more comprehensive background checks before a permit is issued; prohibit permit holders from carrying handguns in sensitive public areas such as government buildings, sporting arenas and bars; and impose new insurance restrictions, among other measures.
