DeSantis Signs Law Allowing Concealed Guns To Be Carried In Florida Without Permits: On Monday, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, a Republican, signed a bill into law that allows people to carry concealed firearms anywhere in the state without needing a permit. The bill had received overwhelming approval from the state legislature last week, making Florida the 26th state to have a permitless concealed carry law. Last week, the bill had been passed by a 27-13 vote in the Senate, which eliminates Florida's requirement under state law for individuals to obtain a concealed weapons permit, undergo background checks, and receive firearms training before being allowed to carry a concealed gun. The House had passed the bill two weeks ago with a vote of 76-32. With the new law, gun owners in Florida only need to have a valid ID to carry a concealed weapon, but they will be fined $25 if they fail to do so. Permitless concealed carry is also legal in Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, New Hampshire, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, West Virginia, Wyoming and North Dakota, where it is only permitted for residents.
