Can you please inform me [and the other TFLers who probably care] of how likely you believe it is to pass?
Sorry for the bad English.

Extremely unlikely.
The makeup of the Criminal Justice & Public Safety committee, which makes the OTP/ITL recommendation on the repeal bill has not changed in any meaningful way, has a large number of current and former law enforcement officers on it, and the majority has been pretty consistent in their position that the minimalist licensing system ($10 for 4 years, no fingerprints/photos, generally shall-issue) we have in place now works reasonably well and is not in need of an overhaul or repeal.
What I would like to see in the interim is a repeal of the requirement that unlicensed individuals carrying openly must disarm when in a motor vehicle, I think that would have a reasonable chance of passing, particularly with testimony from stalking and domestic violence victims.
