But the governor said he doesn't know when
| | [DOUGLAS R. CLIFFORD | Times] | | DeSantis says ‘Constitutional Carry’ gun law is coming to Florida | | Gov. Ron DeSantis today promised to push for a bill allowing Floridians to carry firearms even if they have not previously taken a training course. “I can’t tell you exactly when, but I’m pretty confident that I will be able to sign ‘Constitutional Carry’ into law in the state of Florida,” DeSantis said. “The Legislature will get it done. I can’t tell you if it’s going to be next week, six months, but I can tell you that before I am done as governor, we will have a signature on that bill.” The governor made his remarks at an unrelated news conference in Williston. The term “Constitutional Carry” is a name for the policy often used by its supporters, who argue citizens should be able to carry weapons with or without a permit because of the U.S. Constitution’s Second Amendment. The policy differs slightly from “open carry” — in which citizens can carry firearms without concealing them. Florida also does not allow open carry. This is a developing story.
