ST. LOUIS, MO (KTVI) – The Missouri Highway Patrol says a list of Missourians who have permits to carry concealed weapons was released to the federal government. According to testimony during a Senate Appropriations hearing in Jefferson City, the information came from the Missouri Department of Revenue.
According to testimony, the Social Security Administration was never able to access the data. The request was part of an investigation to determine disability fraud related to mental illness claims. If a subject met mental health requirements for conceal carry, then the SSA wanted to see if that same person was claiming disability due to mental illness.
The testimony came during a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing. Missouri republicans vow to have more hearings on the issue.
During a break in today’s hearing, State Senator Kurt Schaefer, (R) Columbia, held this news briefing.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol says the information shared was with an investigative agency.

Isn't it amazing, here is an individual stating that his job is to protect the citizens rights, and he is at the state level. So why is our brain dead Congress not of the same position as to their job in protecting our Constitutional rights???

We need term limit now the brain dead assholes
This is not right.
This is my biggest concern in holding a CHL. Everytime your license and warrant check is done another check reveals that you do or do not hold a CHL. Anyone who can get to your NCIC/TCIC records can access this information.
This is precisely why CHL should be out-lawed and all "OPEN CARRY" period. The Constitution is our authority to carry openly. It is a money thing and control. If somebody sees someone in OPEN CARRY, they are least likely to do something that might get themselves killed. I like it that way....
