Existing law provides that when a person applies for a license to carry a pistol, revolver, or other firearm capable of being concealed upon the person, the sheriff of a county or the chief or other head of a municipal police department of any city or city and county may issue a license to that person upon proof of certain requirements, including that good cause exists for the issuance of the license. This bill would provide that the good cause requirement would be deemed met for any applicant who is a member of Congress, a statewide elected official, or a Member of the Legislature, for purposes of protection or self-defense, and that those persons would be required to comply with all other requirements for obtaining or renewing the license, as specified.
