Federal HB645 would enforce the right to carry firearms in public for self-defense under the Second and Fourteenth Amendments.

Federal HB645, the National Constitutional Carry Act, seeks to enforce the rights protected by the Second and Fourteenth Amendments against states. The bill asserts that the Second Amendment guarantees an individual right to keep and bear arms, including the right to carry firearms in public. It argues that any state or local restrictions on this right are unconstitutional. The legislation would prohibit states and local governments from imposing penalties or barriers on the public carrying of firearms by U.S. citizens who are eligible to possess firearms under state and federal law.
