SCOTCH PLAINS, N.J. - New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy on Thursday signed an overhaul to the rules to get a firearm carry permit, legislation that was spurred by this summer’s U.S. Supreme Court ruling expanding gun rights.
"While we are bound to follow the Supreme Court’s ruling, we are also obligated to do everything we can to make sure guns don’t proliferate," Murphy, a Democrat, said before signing the measure during a ceremony in Scotch Plains.
According to Bloomberg, the law is already being challenged by a gun-rights group who say it violates the Second Amendment.
