Kansans to vote on concealed handgun bill in House action
The Kansas House approved a bill to allow concealed handgun carry by residents, 76 to 48, with veto risk as Gov. Graves likely to veto. The measure moves to a Senate with weaker support, citing safety gains for women and crime reduction versus potential increases in gun deaths. House sponsor Rep. Ruff framed it as personal safety, while critics warn of more accidents and deaths. The plan would set licensing by the Kansas Bureau of Investigation starting January 1, 2000, with 21-year-old minimum, safety training, and no recent mental illness or substance abuse.
