After a great deal of controversy and a bit of editorial input from our Governor, HB89 has passed in the Senate. Bear in mind, though some sites have reported it as such, it is not state law yet. It still has to be signed, which will likely be in May.
What’s interesting is that, along with a watering-down of the NRA’s proposals, Rep. Bearden managed to get a great deal of stipulations from HB915 inserted into the bill.
