There Are Now 19 Constitutional Carry States

In a day or so, Tennessee will become the 19th Constitutional Carry state. The state Senate passed the bill by a 23-9 vote and the House by a 64-29 vote. The bill is the governor’s bill so the governor has already promised to sign the bill. Here is a Tweet that he just put out on the bill.

State Houses in Indiana and Iowa have also passed these bills. In Indiana, the bill passed by 65-31. In Iowa, the vote was 60-37.

One of the reasons for passing Constitutional Carry was that many states stopped issuing permits last year during the Coronavirus outbreak.
