Don't forget the commerce clause....

Hey is this that "compromise" that they've been talking about for the last 4 months?

Oh wait, that actually just means, do what we want.

If they recognize a driver's license, they should recognize CCPs

The Feds set certain standards for driver licensing too, which ensure that driver's licenses issued in one state are valid nationwide. Is that an "unfunded mandate" too?

State & local laws cannot infringe on the Constitution of the United States of America.

Alaska does not require a background check of private firearm sales. Nor can the federal government mandate that any State perform a background check. Like I said, "Congress can determine how State issued firearm licenses and permits may effect each State, [but] they cannot impose a unfunded mandatory background check."
