HB 2296 modifies the eligibility criteria for obtaining a Capitol access pass by expanding the requirements beyond those applicable to a handgun license. The bill allows individuals with disqualifying criminal convictions to apply for a pass if they meet new eligibility criteria set by the Department of Public Safety, which must consider the time elapsed since the conviction and evidence of good standing in the community.
