Florida Senate poised to give final approval to permitless carry bill
Full Story: In the shadow of the country's latest school shooting — Florida lawmakers are set to give final approval to a bill this week that would both bolster school safety and loosen state gun laws with permitless carry. The Senate Minority Leader Sen. Lauren Book said Wednesday it was in "poor taste" to move ahead with an expected vote on Thursday. The Democrat called on the Republican majority to slow down and see what lawmakers could learn from the shooting.
