SB 388

  • May 2, 2017
    sponsored by state Senator Dave Sypolt (R-14), allows law-abiding citizens in possession of a concealed firearm permit to transport a firearm onto school property while dropping off or picking up students, as long as the firearm does not leave the motor vehicle. Before, West Virginia law prevents loaded firearms from being carried or transported onto school property, including by those who don’t step foot out of their car. Individuals who are legally allowed to carry a firearm for self-defense should not be barred from doing so while dropping off or picking up their kids from school.
