Bill Summary

AN ACT TO AUTHORIZE CONCEALED CARRY PERMIT HOLDERS TO CARRY FIREARMS ON CERTAIN SCHOOL PROPERTY AT CERTAIN TIMES AND TO AUTHORIZE CONCEALED CARRY FOR CERTAIN LAW ENFORCEMENT FACILITY EMPLOYEES, TO REPEAL PISTOL PURCHASE PERMITS, AND TO LAUNCH A STATEWIDE FIREARM SAFE STORAGE AWARENESS INITIATIVE TO EDUCATE THE PUBLIC ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF THE SAFE STORAGE OF FIREARMS AND TO FACILITATE THE DISTRIBUTION OF GUN LOCKS.

AI Summary

This bill has several key provisions: 1. It allows concealed carry permit holders to carry firearms on certain school property outside of school operating hours, as long as the property is also used as a place of religious worship. It also allows certain law enforcement facility employees who are not sworn law enforcement officers to carry concealed handguns in those facilities. 2. It repeals the requirement for a pistol purchase permit, which had previously been needed to purchase a handgun in North Carolina. 3. It directs the Department of Public Safety, in collaboration with other state agencies, to launch a two-year statewide firearm safe storage awareness initiative. This initiative will educate the public about the importance of safely storing firearms, especially in homes with children, and facilitate the distribution of free or discounted gun locks. The bill aims to expand Second Amendment rights and firearm access, while also promoting firearm safety and storage awareness through this public education campaign.
