The Right to Bear Arms

Summary

The joint resolution proposes amending Section 20 of the South Carolina Constitution to state that every citizen has a fundamental right to keep and bear arms, and that right is subject to strict scrutiny. It also bars any international treaty or law that conflicts with the U.S. Constitution from limiting this right. The amendment would be placed on the ballot at the next general election for voter approval.
