The outcome is expected to significantly impact firearm carry rights nationwide.

The Supreme Court has granted review to Wolford v. Lopez, a case challenging Hawaii's concealed carry restrictions post-Bruen.

Florida's open carry ban, in place since 1987, was declared unconstitutional by the First District Court of Appeal in McDaniels v. State of Florida on September 10, 2025. This ruling, based on the Bruin decision, means law-abiding adults can now openly carry firearms. However, legal ambiguity persists due to a conflict with a prior Florida Supreme Court ruling and defiance from some sheriffs. The right to open carry is not absolute and remains subject to restrictions in sensitive locations and on private property.

The Supreme Court has accepted the case Wolford v. Lopez, challenging Hawaii's "sensitive places" law that presumes private property open to the public is a gun-free zone unless the owner explicitly permits carry. This decision marks a significant development in Second Amendment litigation, potentially impacting how "sensitive places" are defined and regulated nationwide. The Ninth Circuit's prior ruling upholding Hawaii's law, based on historical analogies, is now under Supreme Court review.

The Supreme Court has agreed to hear a significant Second Amendment case challenging Hawaii's law restricting concealed carry on private property without owner consent.

The decision is expected by next summer and will apply the 'Bruen' test, requiring gun control measures to align with historical tradition.

The speaker expresses skepticism about the Republican party's ability to pass the bill without complications.
