A bill to cut in half Arkansas's initial concealed carry application fee cleared its first hurdle Thursday by passing out the House Judiciary Committee.
It would cut the cost from $100 to $50 for those younger than 65, and $50 to $25 for those 65 or older.
The bill also reduces the yearly renewal fee from $35 to $25.
"We're reducing the fee on folks that have to pay to exercise their constitutional right for self-defense," says St. Rep. Jim Dotson (R- Bentonville). |

| All concealed carry “permits” are licenses of a right (liberty). The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that such licenses are illegal. Furthermore, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that citizens “can ignore the license and fee and engage in the right (liberty) with impunity.” |

TO REMEMBER |
| We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
