HR 38 is the biggest national gun-rights fight coming, and it could finally force every state to honor your concealed carry the same way they honor your driver's license. The bill would let law-abiding gun owners carry across all 50 states under their home-state rules — and that's exactly why police unions are trying to shut it down. They're claiming it threatens "officer safety" and "qualified immunity," while gun owners see it as the most important step toward restoring a real, nationwide right to self-defense. In this episode, we break down what HR 38 actually does, why cops are pushing back, what it means for constitutional carry states, and how this will shape the 2026 election fight over the future of the Second Amendment. Also in this episode The crew breaks down why police unions oppose HR 38 and what their letter reveals about outdated assumptions toward armed citizens.
