What it does
The bill would require the District of Columbia to allow Members of Congress who hold a valid concealed carry license or permit from their state of residence—or who are otherwise entitled to carry a concealed firearm under state law—to carry a concealed firearm in D.C., provided they are not federally prohibited from possessing firearms and carry a photo ID. It amends D.C. Official Code § 22–4505 by adding a new subsection that exempts qualifying Members of Congress from existing restrictions on carrying pistols in the District. The change would take effect upon enactment and applies to Senators, Representatives, Delegates, and Resident Commissioners.
