New York’s New Gun Ban Will Affect These 15 Places – Is It Legal?
On September 1st, New York's new legislation to strengthen gun safety in response to a US Supreme Court ruling will take effect.
In June, SCOTUS overturned a century-old New York law that made concealed carry illegal for anyone not shooting for sport or needing a firearm for job protection. New York legislators and Governor Hochul rushed a bill through before the July 4th weekend that establishes 15 "Sensitive Locations" where no concealed carry is allowed, citing public safety.

The new law will also make all land be assumed "No Concealed Carry" unless a business or property owner explicitly posts that concealed carry is allowed. Governor Hochul has tweeted numerous times on the issue, this coming after the Independence Day shootings in Highland Park, Illinois.
As continued mass shootings make national headlines, the newer, more aggressive gun debate is only getting started.
