CHAIRMAN LEMAN brought CSHB 66(HES) (APPROVE CENTRALIZED PUBLIC
HEALTH LAB) back before the committee.
SENATOR TORGERSON moved CSHB 66(HES) be approved for calendaring at
the discretion of the Chair. SENATOR DUNCAN objected. CHAIRMAN
LEMAN stated the calendaring motion carried on a 3-1 vote.
CHAIRMAN LEMAN brought SB 141 (CONCEALED HANDGUN PERMITS/FIREARM
POSSESS) before the committee and directed attention to a proposed
Rules CS.
SENATOR TOGERSON moved the adoption of CSSB 141(RLS). SENATOR
DUNCAN objected and requested an explanation of the changes made in
the committee substitute.
TUCKERMAN BABCOCK , staff to Senator Lyda Green who sponsored the
legislation, said the Rules CS clarifies actions taken by the
Senate Finance Committee to prevent someone who is a repeat
offender with a class A misdemeanor from applying for a permit if
they have repeat offenses during a six-year period.
Another change is to Section 15 which, as worded, was ambiguous and
did not allow for a transition for a new resident who had a permit
from another state, nor did it have a time limit on the number of
days an individual could be in the state with an out-of-state
permit. It now provides an individual can be in the state for 120
days with an out-of-state permit, which allows the individual to
satisfy the 90-day requirement before applying for a new permit and
allows the department to satisfy the 30-day requirement for issuing
the permit.
CHAIRMAN LEMAN asked if the objection to the adoption of the Rules
CS was maintained, and it was not. He then stated CSSB 141(RLS)
was adopted.
SENATOR TORGERSON moved CSSB 141(RLS) be approved for calendaring
at the discretion of the Chair. SENATOR DUNCAN objected. CHAIRMAN
LEMAN stated the calendaring motion carried on a 3-1 vote.
There being no further business to come before the committee, the
meeting adjourned at 10:57 a.m.
