Dear
Friends
As of 10:00 PM,
Tuesday 5/28…
Senator Forby’s/ Rep. Phelps’ Senate Bill
2193 was defeated in the Senate Executive
Committee by a vote of 6-8. Senator James Clayborne sided with
the 5 Republican members of the committee.
Later this
afternoon, the committee adopted an amendment to Senator Raoul’s HB 183, with a
vote of 8-4-1. The Republican members of the Executive
Committee voted “no” or “present” on the Raoul version of
concealed-carry legislation.
As a reminder
the Forby/Phelps bill included preemption and was a “shall”
issue concealed-carry version. Raoul’s bill is written for
“may” issue. We are clearly at a stalemate at this point, I
will likely send out another update tomorrow. I will remain
strong and hope to vote on a "shall" issue bill that allows
all Illinoisans the same concealed-carry
rights.
Sincerely,
Chapin
Rose
State
Senator
