Senate Bill 239 which allows for concealed carry licensees to carry concealed firearms into liquor establishments as long as they are not consuming alcohol has passed the senate and is currently sitting in the Ohio House of Representatives. Additionally, the Senate also passed SB 247 which brings state law into line with federal law on restoration of rights for gun owners.
With elections looming it will be interesting to see what the Democratic party in Ohio (which got elected largely on a pro-gun stance) will do with these bills. Governor Strickland has already indicated a willingness to sign these bills but will not be able to do so unless they are placed in front of him.
As an Ohio Gun Lawyer I continue to work diligently on keeping apprised of all changes in our gun laws. Please stay tuned for further updates on the law.
