Bill Summary
A BILL To enforce the rights protected by the Second and Fourteenth Amendments against the States.
AI Summary
This bill, the National Constitutional Carry Act, aims to enforce the rights protected by the Second and Fourteenth Amendments against the states. It prohibits states and their political subdivisions from imposing criminal or civil penalties, or other barriers, on the carrying of firearms in public by U.S. citizens who are otherwise eligible to possess firearms under state and federal law. The bill also nullifies any state or local laws that criminalize or indirectly discourage such public firearms carrying. The terms "state" and "public" are defined in the bill, with "public" excluding privately-owned locations where firearms are clearly prohibited, and places where firearms screening is conducted under state law.
