Floridians could openly carry firearms in public and wouldn’t need a permit to carrythem concealed under legislation that now has the endorsement of Governor Ron DeSantis.
There’s one problem though… The bill hasn’t received a single hearing in either legislative chamber.
While the sponsor of the constitutional carry bill thinks it will be enough to pull the bill directly on the House floor for a vote, opponents don’t seem all that worried.

I guess you don’t really think this is important enough to push it, DeSantis.
