On Monday, April 7th, Governor Laura Kelly signed two pro-gun bills into law. Both bills are set to take effect on July 1st, 2025. NRA thanks Governor Kelly, lead sponsors Senator Owens and Representative Howell, all legislators who ensured these bills advanced, and all NRA members and fellow Second Amendment advocates who engaged with their legislators this session.
SB 137, introduced by Senator Owens, authorizes the state to sell seized and forfeited firearms to FFL dealers for resale.
HB 2052, introduced by Representative Howell, allows individuals to update their provisional license to a standard license upon reaching the age of 21. Under current law, these individuals are ineligible to transition to a standard concealed carry license upon turning 21 until their four-year provisional license expires.
