Ohio: Military Carry Permit Reform Bill Will be Heard in Committee Next Week

On Wednesday, May 11, at 2:30 p.m., the House State Government Committee has scheduled sponsor testimony on Senate Bill 199 in Room 121 of the State Capitol.  Please click the “Take Action” button below to contact members of the House State Government Committee and urge them to vote in favor of SB 199.


Sponsored by state Senator Joe Uecker (R-14), SB 199 would exempt active duty members of the U.S. Armed Forces from the concealed carry permit license requirements. The bill would make several important changes in the Concealed Handgun Law regarding a person who is an active duty member of the U.S. armed forces and is carrying a valid military identification card and a certificate issued by the person's applicable service branch indicating that the person has successfully completed small arms qualification (qualifying member of the military).
