HB 940 - House Version Repealing Handgun Rationing on Final Vote in Senate Today

Legislation is moving fast this year.  It is not unheard of, but highly unusual for House bills to move in the Senate before Crossover.  But a number of House bills are on third reading today in the State Senate, included Delegate Scott Lingamfelter's HB 940, repealing Virginia's handgun rationing bill.  If it passes, which is expected since the Senate has already passed its version, then the bill will go to the Governor, and it will be signed before the end of this year's session.  Once signed, it will become effective July 1, 2012.
