Lawmaker introduces BILL to publish NAMES, ADDRESSES of ALL 170,000 gun permit holders in Connecticut !! The names and addresses of about 170,000 handgun permit holders in Connecticut, now kept confidential by law, could be made public under a proposed bill that pits gun owners against would-be reformers in the aftermath of the Dec. 14 Newtown school massacre. The bill, introduced by Rep. Stephen D. Dargan, D-West Haven, co-chairman of the legislature's public safety committee, would make public the names and addresses of permit holders under Connecticut's Freedom of Information Act — and would reverse lawmakers' decision to protect that personal information from disclosure nearly two decades ago.

As controversial as his proposal might become, as he says, it might or might not be part of the solution as the General Assembly gets back to work next week.
