BOISE, Idaho — Legislation allowing Idaho school district employees with an enhanced concealed weapons license to carry a concealed weapon on school property has been killed in a Senate committee.
The Senate State Affairs Committee on Friday rejected the measure on a 5-4 vote.
An enhanced concealed weapons license requires some training and time on the range, but can be renewed without additional training.
Opponents said that wasn't a high enough standard to allow someone onto school grounds with a concealed weapon.
School districts already have the ability to OK employees to carry guns, but few have done so.
