Amend the amendment in section 1 by striking out all of paragraph D (page 1, lines 14 to 19 in amendment) and inserting the following:

D The prohibition on the possession of a firearm does not apply to a person who possesses a firearm in a motor vehicle as long as the following conditions are met:

(1) The person is dropping off or picking up a student and remains inside the motor vehicle; and

(2) The firearm is not loaded and is concealed either in the motor vehicle or on the person's person.

This amendment removes the requirement in Committee Amendment "A" that a firearm in a motor vehicle of a person dropping off or picking up a student on school property needs to be in a locked container or locked firearms rack. Instead, this amendment requires the firearm to be concealed either in the motor vehicle or on the person's person.
