South Dakota legislature votes to allow concealed handguns without a permit
The South Dakota legislature has passed a bill allowing residents to carry concealed handguns without a permit, sending the measure to Gov. Kristi Noem (R) for a signature.
The state House passed the Senate legislation in a 47-23 vote on Tuesday to allow for the so-called "constitutional carry," The Argus Leader reported.
Noem has vocalized support for the measure before but said she will consider the language in the bill before signing it into law.
State Rep. Lee Qualm (R), a bill sponsor, told the newspaper that the measure was "simple" because it repealed the concealed carry permit requirements.
