JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — The Missouri House passed a bill Wednesday that allows concealed weapons on public transportation and lifts their prohibition in houses of worship.
Under the measure, concealed weapon permit holders could carry onto buses, though guns would remain prohibited on Amtrak trains. Concealed weapons would also be allowed into churches, synagogues and other places of worship, though religious leaders could post signs saying guns aren't permitted and ask those with weapons to leave.
The House passed the bill 101-40, sending it to the Senate.
