Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) signed a Constitutional Carry bill on Monday that will allow lawful citizens to carry concealed weapons without a government-issued permit. The law goes into effect on July 1, and strengthens Floridians’ Second Amendment rights. Florida is the 26th state to enact Constitutional Carry legislation.
“Constitutional Carry is in the books,” DeSantis said in a brief press release.
The legislation will allow people to carry concealed weapons in most public spaces. The bill does not affect current laws regarding the purchase of a firearm and will not allow anyone prohibited from possessing a firearm to carry concealed. The state will still require full background checks when a firearm is purchased, including a three-day waiting period for all firearms. People carrying concealed without a license will still be required to obey existing laws prohibiting carrying in places like schools and government buildings.
