In a decision released Friday, a three judge panel in the Second Circuit Court of Appeals knocked out a state law requiring businesses who allow concealed carry to display a sign expressing such permission.
The decision actually applies to four separate cases that were consolidated by the Second Circuit. In it, the panel also affirmed the right of lawful citizens to carry in places of worship. Both of these restrictions, the court reasoned, violate the fundamental right afforded to keep and bear arms.
The state that gave us the Bruen decision still doesn’t seem willing to accept the new standard, continuing to pass laws that violate the Second Amendment. As these cases are likely to be appealed, 2ALC will be launching an amicus campaign to support this ongoing effort. With signage requirements now pending in other states, like California, affirming this decision is all the more vital.
