Guns in restaurants bill fails in Senate; second vote expected
A measure to allow guns in restaurants failed to get enough votes to pass the Senate on June 15.
The bill, S1114, failed by a vote of 14-14. It needed 16 votes to pass. The bill's sponsor, Sen. Jack Harper, changed his vote from "yes" to "no" so that he could be on the prevailing side of the vote and, thereby, ask for the legislation to be reconsidered.
