The House voted to pass both bills today. Congressman Lamborn (CO-05) issued this statement: “The Second Amendment clearly protects American citizens' rights to conceal carry across state lines. The Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act is a law-abiding piece of legislation that clearly protects gun owners. It does not arm criminals, like its opponents have falsely claimed. Nothing in the bill would permit a criminal to purchase or possess a firearm. Additionally, the Fix NICS Act requires individuals to undergo a National Instant Criminal Background Check System. This System also needs updating so the bill incentivizes states to keep accurate records and report to the FBI. The bill would also instigate a study of the use of bump stocks. Ideally I would have preferred to have voted on these two pieces of legislation separately but I’m glad it was a bipartisan effort.” f t # e | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
