What this bill would do

The Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2025 aims to amend title 18 of the United States Code. It establishes a system where nonresidents can carry concealed handguns in certain states if they hold a valid license from their home state. This applies to states that allow residents to apply for concealed firearm permits or do not prohibit residents from carrying for lawful purposes. The bill includes protections against arrest for those following these guidelines and provides legal remedies for rights deprivation. It also specifies that certain public lands are accessible for carrying handguns.
