AI Summary

  • Requests Hawaii's congressional delegation and U.S. Congress to oppose federal "concealed carry reciprocity" legislation, specifically S. 446 and H.R. 38 from the 115th Congress.

  • Opposes legislation that would remove state and local police authority to set public safety standards for concealed firearm permits.

  • States that Hawaii requires safety training and denies permits to individuals lacking good moral character, while 19 states allow concealed carry without safety training and 25 states do not screen for dangerous warning signs like domestic violence histories.

  • Argues that 12 states require no permit, training, or criminal background check for concealed carry, and reciprocity would force Hawaii to accept these lesser standards from out-of-state visitors.

  • Directs transmission of the resolution to the U.S. Senate Majority Leader, House Speaker, and Hawaii's congressional delegation.
