Ohio Senate passes concealed carry bill over objections of law enforcement groups

COLUMBUS, Ohio (WXIX) - The Ohio Senate on Wednesday passed a concealed carry bill that proposes to make carrying a handgun much easier than before.
Senate Bill 215 passed by a 23-8 vote. (Summary)


SB215 was introduced by Sen. Terry Johnson (R-Batavia) and 13 co-sponsors in August.
The bill makes concealed carry licenses optional—thereby removing background checks and training minimums—for those 21 and over who wish to carry a firearm.
The bill also eliminates the requirement that Ohioans promptly notify law enforcement officers during a traffic stop if they have a concealed weapon.
Additionally, officers are prohibited from detaining, conducting a search or making a seizure of anyone for having a firearm who is otherwise law-abiding.
