The Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) released its 2026 State Freedom Index, ranking all U.S. states and D.C. based on 22 Yes/No criteria across four categories: Arms, Acquisition, Carry, and Other. Only Kansas and New Hampshire received top 'Chad State' rankings for 100% agreement with constitutional gun rights, while California ranked worst at 4.55%.
