A bill to cut in half Arkansas's initial concealed carry application fee cleared its first hurdle Thursday by passing out the House Judiciary Committee.
It would cut the cost from $100 to $50 for those younger than 65, and $50 to $25 for those 65 or older.
The bill also reduces the yearly renewal fee from $35 to $25.
"We're reducing the fee on folks that have to pay to exercise their constitutional right for self-defense," says St. Rep. Jim Dotson (R- Bentonville). |

| All concealed carry “permits” are licenses of a right (liberty). The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that such licenses are illegal. Furthermore, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that citizens “can ignore the license and fee and engage in the right (liberty) with impunity.” |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
