Wrap: Just one day after Brian Long stepped down as the Department of Revenue Director, Nixon says the Department will no longer keep concealed carry information for drivers licenses.
The Department of Revenue has been under fire recently for sharing a list of gun owners with the feds--a practice state lawmakers claim is illegal.
Senate leader Tom Dempsey says he likes that Nixon is starting to pay attention to the situation.

Wrap: Democratic Gov. Jay Nixon says the state Department of Revenue won't scan or retain any more "concealed carry" certificates from gun owners.
The revenue department has been under fire recently for keeping that data and sharing it with the federal government. That scandal has already forced the director of the Department of Revenue to resign.
But Republican Senator Kurt Schaefer says the changes at Revenue won't stop senators from asking more questions about the controversy.

That's not going to happen." | |
The controversy has already forced to the director of the Department of Revenue to quit his job.
