Weren't they already authorized to carry under leosa? I am pretty sure it covers Reserve officers.

Not sure of any details.
I'm sure someone will be along shortly to fill in the blanks.
Maybe D.C. refused to issue ID cards.

They get an ID if they are active. I think you are thinking of retirees.

First I'm hearing of it. A lot of our reserves are authorized to carry as I recall. I've only hit the street with armed reserves but I know we did/used to have unarmed reserves

Apparently Reserve Patrol Officers Level I, who were issued firearms (and didn't have to turn them in at end of assignment), had to drive straight home and lock the firearm up. (See the last URL in my previous post.)
Maybe MPD refused to issue LEOSA cards?

Hey cypherpunk please don't take this the wrong way but per your PM I won't be making that call. I'm pretty transparent about who I am online and sometimes it's best to stay in your own lane instead of making waves 
Please don't take that as me being rude, I just don't feel it's my place to publicly push the envelope.

So, more info...
Apparently, DC didn't allow otherwise qualified reserve officers to carry off-duty within DC, until this change.
It would appear LEOSA only applies to areas outside of your area of jurisdiction. Within your area of jurisdiction, your organization has full authority to regulate off duty carry?

I remember back in the day, probably up until George Johnson became sheriff of AA county(mid-late 90's?) Deputies had to carry with a permit. But he changed that.

They could regulate it administratively. LEOSA applies nationally and the city cannot make laws without Congress. DC law even before LEOSA allowed LEO's to carry in the city off duty and didn't exclude reserve officers.
I know someone who got a LEOSA card issued by dc, but never worked there.

wow, were they ever a LEO anywhere? or is this one of those "connected" folks?

Of course he was. With me. He's friends with the guy in charge of the dc program. TSA's LEOSA card machine has been inop since January. So he got his own card lol.

You can get it from ANY department that offers the course
No. They don't issue cards, they just do the quals. You need to bring your own card.
Wish something like this existed closer, I'd be very interested.
