2013 House Bill 4105

Expand concealed pistol law “gun free zone” to libraries

Introduced in the House

Jan. 24, 2013

Introduced by Rep. Andy Schor (D-68)

To expand the “gun free zone” provision of the concealed pistol permit law to include public libraries. The bill would also prohibit carrying firearms openly (unconcealed) in a library. Some gun owners have protested local library gun bans recently by openly carrying firearms in the library; nothing in state law explicitly prohibits the open carry of firearms.

Referred to the Committee on Local Government
