I'm sure this will quickly get hijacked into (another) 2nd amendment debate thread, but until then, a federal law has passed the house that would require all 50 states to accept the conceal carry permit from every other state.
That puts Hawaii in a bind because CCW permits are virtually non existent (not a single permit application was approved in 2016, as of July 2014 there were 183 active Handgun Carry Licenses in Hawaii, out of a population of 1.4 million).
If the bill passes the senate, anybody from the other 49 states could come here with their concealed weapons and permits, but local residents wouldn't be able to participate unless they got a permit from one of the other states.
