Committee advances bill to let nonveterans restore concealed-carry rights using veterans' pathway
Summary
House Bill 1123 would extend to all citizens the process currently available to veterans for restoring concealed-carry rights after receiving mental-health care. The committee approved the bill by voice vote after no public testimony or questions.
Speaker 4 presented House Bill 1123, saying lawmakers already allow veterans a process to regain concealed-carry rights after receiving mental-health treatment and the bill would make that process available to all citizens: "So this just takes veterans, and it will allow all citizens to be able to do it that same exact way." The sponsor described the bill as applying an existing pathway to a broader population.
No committee members raised substantive questions, and nobody signed up to testify for or against the bill. Speaker 4 closed the presentation and requested a favorable vote. The committee recorded a motion and a second, conducted a voice vote and recorded ayes; individual roll-call votes were not recorded in the transcript.
The transcript does not include the bill text or implementation details such as application criteria or review timelines.
