Frequently Asked Questions

Why is New York being sued over its new concealed carry law?

New York is being sued by Gun Owners of America (GOA) because its Concealed Carry Improvement Act (CCIA) is alleged to be in direct defiance of the Supreme Court's ruling in NYSRPA v. Bruen, which struck down 'proper cause' requirements for concealed carry permits.

What did the Supreme Court rule in NYSRPA v. Bruen?

The Supreme Court ruled that New York's 'proper cause' requirement for concealed carry permits violated the Second Amendment. The decision stated that licensing schemes must be based on objective standards and the nation's historical tradition, not subjective discretion.

How does New York's CCIA allegedly undermine the Bruen decision?

The CCIA allegedly undermines Bruen by replacing 'proper cause' with a subjective 'good moral character' standard, requiring extensive personal information and social media reviews. It also significantly expands 'sensitive places' where carry is prohibited, which the Supreme Court cautioned against.

What are the main arguments in the GOA lawsuit against New York's CCIA?

GOA argues that the CCIA reintroduces subjective licensing criteria and broadly restricts carry in public spaces, effectively ignoring the Supreme Court's Bruen precedent. They seek an injunction, asserting the Second Amendment is not a 'second-class right'.
