I am curious about police officers being able to carry off duty during interstate travel (no not on airplanes). I heard that Bush passed a federal law allowing for police officers to carry off duty in any state in the union. Are the states honoring this new law? What was the law prior to this? I am a police officer in Michigan, and I am about to take a trip to Chicago. What the position of the state of Illinois on this issue and what are their laws? Does anyone know?

Don't waste your time reading the above GB link.
Go to the following:

Since HR 218 is a Federal Law, it supercedes all state laws, BUT....there are some "clarifications" that you need to be aware of.
Since you stated that you are a police officer, your dept. / agency should be able to give you some info.
