Wait, what? He wants to follow the Constitution? Outrageous! </sarcasm> Via the Moscow-Pullman Daily News:
Idaho senator plans to introduce legislation that would loosen conceal carry restrictions on college campuses
Idaho Sen. Dan Foreman, R-Viola, wants to eliminate some of the concealed carry restrictions on the state’s college campuses and allow non-Idaho U.S. residents to carry concealed weapons without a permit when they are in the Gem State.
He said he plans to introduce both of his ideas to the Legislature during the 2018 session.
As of July 1, 2016, Idaho statute allows residents 21 and older, not disqualified from having a permit, to carry a concealed firearm statewide without a permit. Permitless carry is legal outside city limits for individuals 18 and older and open carry is legal within city limits.
Idaho law permits as of July 1, 2014, qualified retired law enforcement officers and individuals with an enhanced concealed weapon license to carry concealed firearms on public college property, except for student dormitories or residence halls and at public entertainment/sporting facilities with a seating capacity of more than 1,000, according to the University of Idaho’s website.Idaho public colleges and universities advocated against the 2014 law when it was being discussed, but Matt Dorschel, University of Idaho executive director of public safety and security, said there have been no gun incidents on campus since the 2014 law took effect and he does not believe the law has affected safety.
