would nationalize these permits, meaning that a permit issued in one state would be recognized in all states.

That's not what the bill says. It will not allow concealed carry in all states. HKmp45sd posted the link to the bill.
It only allows in states that permit CCW. If a state does not allow CCW then it does not affect those states.
It does not "nationalize" anything. It still allows a state to determine if they want concealed carry or not. The CCW issuing is still done by the state not the federal government. The bill just makes it mandatory that another state with CCW licensing has to honor another states CCW licensing. If a state doesn't permit concealed carry then concealed carry will still be illegal in those states.
If you read the link you'll also note the bill has been referred to the Judiciary committee. That's where bills like this go to die. Read on who is on the committee. Not a lot of firearm supportive members.
