Description | Ohio lawmakers on Wednesday passed a bill allowing gun owners in the state to carry concealed weapons into bars and other establishments where alcohol is served.
The General Assembly passed the bill, which also eases restrictions on how guns can be transported in vehicles, in a 55-38 vote.
The state Senate, which had already passed a similar bill, passed a concurring measure by a 25-7 vote.
If Republican Gov. John Kasich signs the law residents will be able to bring concealed handguns into licensed establishments in the state, including shopping malls and sporting venues. |
