Bad news for bad guys. On Wednesday, the US House of Representatives passed HR 38 — the National Reciprocity Act. The bill passed mainly on party lines, with 231 votes in favor and 198 votes against.
Here's the breakdown on the Illinois delegation's votes:
| No | D | Rush, Bobby | IL 1st |
| No | D | Kelly, Robin | IL 2nd |
| No | D | Lipinski, Daniel | IL 3rd |
| No | D | Gutiérrez, Luis | IL 4th |
| No | D | Quigley, Mike | IL 5th |

| Aye | R | Hultgren, Randy | IL 14th |

Peter Roskam and the entire despicable Democrat delegation need to feel some heat for their shameful vote against recognizing the “full faith and credit” clause of the Constitution where it applies to carry licenses. No doubt these same individuals would not vote to oppose recognizing marriage certificates or driver's licenses!
The bill itself is pretty straight forward: if you have a concealed carry permit from any state in the United States you are good to carry everywhere else where concealed carry is permitted. Even in states where they only have a process where residents can apply, but licenses are never issued.
