Fox News
Constitutional carry legislation by Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, would eliminate concealed carry permits nationwide for eligible U.S. citizens who can legally own firearms.
Alex Miller is a writer for Fox News Digital covering the U.S. Senate.
"The Founders established a national right to keep and bear arms, not to ask for permission from hostile local officials or risk imprisonment for crossing the wrong state line," Lee said in a statement to Fox News Digital.
"Many states already protect the right to carry without a permit, and it’s time to reaffirm this right for all law-abiding Americans," he continued. "The National Constitutional Carry Act will establish nationwide permitless carry to keep America safe and her people free."
