House Bill 485 passed Wednesday with no debate. The only "no" vote came from Democratic Sen. Derrick Simmons of Greenville, who said the names and addresses of state-issued permit holders should remain available to the public.
A Senate committee added the provision about a court order. The bill returns to the House, which can either accept the change and send it to the governor, or seek negotiations on a final version.
Gov. Phil Bryant's office says the Department of Public Safety has received two recent requests for concealed-carry information, one from a newspaper and another from a blogger.
