Iowa House OKs bill to keep gun permits private
DES MOINES (AP) — The Iowa House on Monday overwhelmingly approved a measure that would make public information on gun permits confidential.
The House approved the measure in a landslide 95-3 vote. The bill would make identifiable information private, though law enforcement would still have access to the details. The bill now moves to the Senate.
The bill’s sponsor, Rep. Matt Windschitl, R-Missouri Valley, said criminals could use the records to target homes without firearms.
