Governor Janet Napolitano (D) vetoed House Bill 2389 earlier this week.
Simply stated, under HB2389 you would have been allowed to carry a firearm by means of any transportation - other than public transportation - without a concealed carry permit. Many states already allow the lawful transport and keeping of a firearm in a private vehicle without a state-issued permit.
This is the fourth veto of a pro-gun bill by Governor Napolitano this legislative session on NRA-supported measures such as HB2629, the defensive display of a firearm clarification; HB2630, which would have lowered the penalty for carrying a firearm without a permit to a petty offense; and SB1106, the lifetime concealed carry permit bill.

Is this the same person who is up for the post of Head of Homeland Securityl- If it is I am not feeling very secure right now at all. I would expect this in NYC, shere I live but not in AZ, used to live there. She saound like just another JAG lawyer who won’t allow our men to take the first initiative but must be fired upon first. How about we start playing offense for a change. You can’t win if you don’t play offense. Yes you should keep score and dodgeball is a good way to start.
