If lawful CCW holders from 48 states can not travel to NY or IL to conduct business, it would seem to me that those states are interfering with interstate trade..... In the same way that southern states were interfering with interstate trade by mandating segregated hotels 50 years ago.

Particularly egregious is the unplanned airline stop in NY or Chicago by a traveler who has a handgun in checked baggage.
