Madigan Requests Second Concealed Carry Extension

Rep. Tom Demmer

Concealed carry has been a debate in Illinois for years. Lawmakers now just want Governor Pat Quinn to pull the trigger.

Many in the general assembly view Madigan's latest extension request as a delay tactic.

"We had broad bipartisan support for this bill. It sailed out of the house. It sailed out of the senate. This is one of those rare opportunities that we should take advantage of bipartisanship and sign a good bill," explained Illinois State Representative Tom Demmer.
