This is truly amazing, and something that we should all be happy to hear. Good for Wisconsin and welcome to the world of CC!

A long time coming. Not the cleanest bill but definitely a step in the right direction.

Nevermind, found it. It would be Oct. 1st or Nov. 1st depending if he can sign it in June or July.

Apparently, not everyone is thrilled with the new legislation.

Congrats to Wisconsin.
Illinois is one step closer to CCW but thanks to our governor Quinn it will probably come about through a tooth and nail legal battle. |

Here in Texas we had Gov. Ann Richards do that. Next place you see her after the following election is making Doritos Commercials on TV.

We do have open carry, but few people do. I think CC is a better way. Besides, the city of Milwaukee threatened to harrass people who open carry anyway. It's about time. Let's get this signed into law Scott Walker!

@ Night: I love Wisconsin, my family has property up there that I do not get to near often enough. If only the Walworth Co. Sheriff didn’t respond to the whims of our crazy neighbor who insists we are shooting at his horses every time he hears a gunshot I'm sure I would be up there target shooting every weekend.

Congrats on the victory. It is great to see laws swinging in our favor in so many different places at once.

Latest rumor has it that the Governor will sign the bill on July 8th. Supposed to be a big party (according to an NRA insider).

I emailed back and forth to our representative and he said that Walker will sign the bill next week. Very probably 7/8 to milk all the political mileage out of it.
That puts the earliest date for getting a CC in October, probably November but nearly certainly done by Christmas. Ho Ho Ho -- merry Christmas! Here's your CC permit little Johnny! |
