Life & Work
Schools are among the most common gun-free zones in the country. If this bill pressures states into removing gun-free zone designations, students could see firearms allowed in and around school campuses. Supporters argue this could deter or stop school shootings, while opponents worry it increases the risk of accidental or intentional gun violence in educational settings.
“The term ``gun free zone'' means any geographical area where the carrying of a firearm is prohibited under Federal, State, or local law by a member of the public.”
