The governor's office announced the change, a day after the director of that department resigned.
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. - Gov. Jay Nixon said Tuesday that the Department of Revenue will no longer scan or retain certificates of qualification for Concealed Carry Weapon (CCW) permits. The department's License Bureau offices started keeping those documents when it started using a central system of printing driver's licenses to save money. Holders of CCW permits can have their driver's licenses show they have permits in case they're stopped and a concealed gun is found.
