Ore. lawmakers back closing of handgun records

Associated Press - April 15, 2009 7:25 PM ET

SALEM, Ore. (AP) - A bill to limit public release of information about concealed handgun permit holders is headed for a vote in the Oregon House.

The measure endorsed Wednesday by a House committee was sought by Oregon sheriffs who want to prevent newspapers and others from getting lists of people with concealed handgun permits.

The sheriffs and gun rights groups say that releasing the information would jeopardize permit holders' personal security.

Open government advocates have argued that the concealed handgun permits have always been an open record and that there's no compelling reason to make them off limits to the public.
