I looked to see if this as been covered here and didn't see any previous references to it.

On its face, this seems doomed to failure. Unlike interstate commerce, the federal government would appear to have no jurisdiction over what is traditionally, and solely, a state's issue.
It appears to me this bill, along with its caricature name, was written to fail so as to be used later as an example of "common sense" laws opposed by the gun lobby and pro-rights politicians. I can just hear Ms. "Call me senator" screeching about anyone that would oppose "a common sense" approach to concealed carry licensing.
