Sebelius to veto concealed guns bill
Topeka ? Gov. Kathleen Sebelius today said she will probably veto legislation that would allow Kansans to carry concealed handguns.
“I am not a fan of conceal and carry meaures, and while I haven’t seen the final bill, unless there is something in it that I don’t understand, it would be my intent to veto it,” Sebelius said during her weekly news conference.
The measure would require the attorney general’s office to issue a concealed-carry permit to any Kansan 21 or older who is a U.S. citizen, pays a $150 application fee, has no mental illness or drug or alcohol addiction and completes eight hours of training.
If vetoed, the Legislature can override the governor with a two-thirds’ majority.
