Shall Issue in Cali
Probably won’t happen since Cali doesn’t like to arm the little people but there is a bill:
What issue could unite a Republican lawmaker from Southern California and a 46-year-old lesbian from Natomas?
Guns, of course.
A bill introduced in the state Assembly last month aims to make it easier for Californians to obtain a concealed weapons permit.
Assembly Bill 357 – yes, the number is right – would change a state law that currently gives county sheriffs or chiefs of police final say in who can carry a gun.
By stripping the local law enforcement discretion, the bill would mandate that any Californian who passes a training course and demonstrates “good moral character” can tuck a pistol into his or her waistband.
Sebastian illustrates why may issue laws are problematic.

Sometimes I wonder if Cali’s bill numbering process is rigged. Every year “One Bill Gil” Cedillo comes out with a bill to grant driver licenses to illegal aliens, and that bill always seems to be called SB 60.

Shall Issue in Cali would be an awesome victory, no doubt.
