Gun Owners of America is filing a lawsuit that challenges a Florida state law that prohibits the open carry of firearms, arguing it is unconstitutional under Supreme Court precedent.
FIRST ON FOX: Gun rights activists are taking up the fight to strike down Florida's ban on openly carrying firearms after the Republican-controlled legislature rejected an repeal effort. Gun Owners of America is filing a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida that seeks to have the 1893 gun restriction declared unconstitutional and a court order to block enforcement of the law.
'Plaintiffs seek preliminary followed by permanent injunctive relief, as well as declaratory and other relief, to rectify Florida’s infringement of an enumerated right that ‘shall not be infringed.’' KYLE RITTENHOUSE WALKS BACK DECLARING HE WAS NOT VOTING FOR TRUMP FOR NOT BEING ‘PRO-GUN ENOUGH’ The lawsuit comes after Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a GOP-backed bill last year that eliminated a requirement for state residents to obtain a permit to carry concealed firearms.
