Summary

The bill changes state law so that people who can legally own a gun may keep it in a locked vehicle on Capitol grounds or carry it concealed inside Capitol buildings, except in places like the Governor’s office and Supreme Court chambers. It also permits firearms on the streets and sidewalks that border the Capitol complex while keeping penalties for disrupting government business or damaging property. The measure seeks to expand gun‑rights while preserving security in sensitive areas.
