The vote was 31-9. Failure to invoke closure in the Nebraska&#8217;s unicameral legislature means the bill is dead for the year. If it had passed, Gov. Pete Ricketts (R-NE) had promised to sign it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The primary sponsor of the legislation, Sen. Tom Brewer (Dis. 43- Gordon) has promised to bring the bill back next session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/omaha.com\/news\/state-and-regional\/govt-and-politics\/permitless-concealed-carry-bill-shot-down-by-nebraska-legislature\/article_c4251724-b9a6-11ec-adc1-c76107e04ca6.html#tracking-source=home-top-story\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Omaha World-Herald<\/a><\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&#8220;Next year we&#8217;ll start over again,&#8221; he vowed, predicting that newly elected lawmakers will change the makeup of the Legislature and provide enough votes for the measure to pass.\u00a0<\/p><p>Under LB 773, which was co-sponsored by a majority of state senators, Nebraska adults who were not otherwise banned from having guns would no longer have had to get a permit to carry a concealed weapon.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Initially, the bill faced opposition from major law enforcement groups in Nebraska such as the Omaha Police Officers Association and the Omaha PD. However, Sen. Brewer had negotiated a compromise and the law enforcement groups would change to neutral on the bill if that compromise amendment was adopted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Again from the Omaha World-Herald on the compromise:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>But the amendment failed on a 13-29 vote Monday, with hard-line gun rights advocates joining those who favored gun restrictions to shoot it down.\u00a0<\/p><p>The Omaha police union then switched back to opposition and began urging senators to vote against the bill.\u00a0<\/p><p>The compromise amendment would have allowed cities of the metropolitan class, meaning Omaha, to continue to require registration of all handguns, other than those owned by people with a concealed-carry permit. The city could not deny registrations to anyone allowed by state law to own a gun.<\/p><p>The amendment also would make it a crime to carry a concealed handgun while committing any of a lengthy list of offenses. The list ranges from murder to \u201cunauthorized\u201d graffiti and includes violations of city or village ordinances, as well as state laws.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>As I&#8217;m not a resident of the Cornhusker State, I don&#8217;t know all the hoops that Sen. Brewer had to jump through to get that &#8220;compromise&#8221; but to me it seems he was giving up more than was gained. While permitless carry would have been great, registration of handguns and any sort of a carve-out for Omaha would seem to negate what would be gained. Any registration scheme is anathema to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope Sen. Brewer is correct in seeing a potential pickup of the needed seats to overcome a future filibuster in the next session. I&#8217;d much rather see the effort go to picking up those seats than to making any sort of compromise that would minimize the win of getting permitless carry passed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you would expect, the anti-rights forces are crowing about the failure to invoke cloture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">THEY DID IT!!!
