Legislation removing all licensing and training requirements for handguns was the first lawlaw signed by Gov. Kevin Stitt.
Billed as constitutional carry or permitless carry,House Bill 2597doesn’t change where guns are allowed or, for the most part, who can carry them.
Some Democrats tried unsuccessfully to amend the bill to allow guns in the Capitol, where they currently are prohibited.
Here are other places where firearms are not welcome, per statute or individual rule.
