Floridians will be able to carry concealed guns without a permit under a bill signed by Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Floridians will be able to carry concealed guns without a permit under a bill Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis signed Monday, giving the governor another legislative victory as he prepares a campaign for president.
The governor signed the bill in a private ceremony in his office. His only immediate public comment was, “Constitutional Carry is in the books,” which he said in a three-paragraph news release.
