The West Virginia House of Delegates voted 84-13 on Feb. 22 to approve a bill that prohibits the state’s public colleges and universities from banning licensed gun holders from carrying their firearms on campus. 
With the West Virginia Senate already passing Senate Bill 10, the Campus Self-Defense Act, by a vote of 29-4 on Jan. 24, the legislation now goes to the desk of Gov. Jim Justice.
