HB 1600 -- DRIVER'S LICENSE RENEWAL FOR CONCEALED CARRY
ENDORSEMENTS

SPONSOR:  Crawford

COMMITTEE ACTION:  Voted "do pass" by the Committee on Crime
Prevention and Public Safety by a vote of 14 to 2.

This bill makes a driver's license or nondriver's license expire
three years from the date that the certification of qualification
for a concealed carry endorsement was issued by the county
sheriff.

FISCAL NOTE:  No impact on state funds in FY 2005, FY 2006, and
FY 2007.

PROPONENTS:  Supporters say that currently a driver's license is
issued for six years, but a concealed carry endorsement is only
issued for three years.  The bill merely puts both the license
and the endorsement on the same renewal schedule.

Testifying for the bill was Representative Crawford.

OPPONENTS:  There was no opposition voiced to the committee.

OTHERS:  Others testifying on the bill say that changing the
driver's license renewal to coincide with the expiration date of
the concealed carry endorsement is the only practical way to make
the license-with-endorsement system work properly.

Others testifying on the bill was Department of Revenue.
