It seems to me that Arizona has very good reciprocity with other states even after passing constitutional carry. Creighton is my state senator and I will be having a word with him for sure.
I think he may be stating that we need to be cautious about how the law on constitutional carry would be worded, and we do not want it to cause Texas to no have a concealed carry license so you have the capability of carrying in other states we currently have reciprocity with.
I would suggest if you do have a conversation with him you need to get clarification on his statement so you know where he really stands on open carry.

Re: senator creighton needs the facts
Of course they have to have a CHL, that's the whole point. Arizona CHL has reciprocity with a large amount of other states, I think right around the same as Texas has with no issue because of constitutional carry. Creighton is saying that if permitless carry (constitutional carry) passes it may hurt reciprocity which is bull. Already contacted his office, waiting to hear back if ever. He has ignored a lot of people from before and during the runoff election who asked him to clarify where he stands.
