Get ready for the most aggressive concealed carry legislation you've ever seen, courtesy of Trump

On the campaign trail, Donald Trump said concealed carry gun permits should be like driver's licenses—valid nationwide.  

"If we can do that for driving -- which is a privilege, not a right -- then surely we can do that for concealed carry, which is a right, not a privilege," Trump said.

Now sweeping federal legislation that would essentially steamroll gun safety laws enacted at the state level—in many cases by voters—is already on the table, writes Bryan Schatz:

Shortly after Donald Trump won the election, Todd Rathner, a prominent gun rights lobbyist, said that gun owners were eager to "go on the offense at the federal level." Among their top priorities was national reciprocity legislation: A law guaranteeing that people with concealed-carry permits from one state could take their guns into any other state, even if that state has stricter limits on carrying concealed weapons. Sure enough, on the first day of the new session of Congress, Rep. Richard Hudson (R-N.C.) introduced the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017. [...]

These type of bills have typically been aimed at making it easier for people traveling through states on road trips or for work to contend with differing state laws. Forget about all that, this is just downright brazen—letting one state’s laws trump another state’s laws.
