This bill would require Washington, D.C. to let Members of Congress carry a concealed gun in the city if they are allowed to do so in their home state. To qualify, they must not be barred by federal law from having a gun, they must have a valid state license (or otherwise be allowed to carry in their state), and they must carry a photo ID. “Member of Congress” includes Senators, Representatives, Delegates, and the Resident Commissioner. The change would take effect as soon as the bill becomes law.
