last week the District of Columbia police chief said that if you see an active shooter, take them down. The problem is it is very difficult to own a gun in DC, and it is nearly impossible to have a gun with you if you were to see an active shooter. So my amendment would create a District of Columbia concealed carry permit program. It would also allow national reciprocity for concealed carry. It would also allow Active-Duty Forces to carry concealed carry- on Department of Defense properties. I ask the Senate and those Senators who believe in self-defense to vote for this amendment. Thank you. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from California.
