Not to be the booger on the birthday cake but I think any bill to pre-emptively grant a looser CCW-issuance standard in light of the 4th Circuit decision is doomed no matter which side submits it, at least for this year. O'Malley and Gansler both plan to fight any potentially pro-carry 4th Circuit decision all the way to SCOTUS if they can. At a minimum they'll seek a stay from the 4th Circuit until they can petition SCOTUS and get an answer on whether they'll hear it. There goes most of 2013 before all of that gets resolved.
