Passed 1st Reading
Summary
The bill rewrites the state constitutional provision on the right to bear arms, giving any person who has not been indicted or convicted of a violent crime or felony drug offense and who is not adjudicated mentally incompetent the right to carry any legal weapon for self‑defense, openly or concealed, without needing a permit. A permit system would remain only for reciprocity with other states and for purchasing firearms. Voters will decide the amendment in a statewide referendum in November 2026.
