Florida Open Carry Law bill to be rewritten


FL Sen. Greg Steube says "he’s not moving forward with a comprehensive proposal to legalize open carry in the Sunshine State. Steube made the announcement after Tuesday’s Senate Judiciary Committee meeting, where he sits as chair. Open carry as a whole isn’t totally off the table, though. Steube said he would instead file several different, smaller gun measures, which would still tick several proposals he has long pushed off of his legislative checklist."

Steube is switching strategies in the hopes of getting legislation passed this year that will make it easier for gun-owners with conceal-carry permits to carry their guns in public. The present bill SB 140 will be broken up into 10 smaller bills focusing on different aspects of the law in order to have a more successful chance of open carry to be enacted.
