Concealed guns allowed onto Arizona school campuses

Three GOP gun measures won approval from lawmakers on Wednesday, including a measure that would allow people with concealed weapon permits to bring firearms onto Arizona school campuses. 

The Judiciary Committee in the state House of Representatives passed three bills put forward by pro-gun advocates. The committee is chaired by Rep. Quang Nguyen, R-Prescott Valley, who works as a volunteer coach for the Arizona Scorpions Junior High-Power Rifle team and also serves as president of the Arizona State Rifle and Pistol Association. 

Senate Bill 1331, sponsored by Sen. Janae Shamp, R-Surprise, prohibits a school board from restricting a parent or legal guardian from having a firearm on school property if they have a concealed carry permit.
