Maddy summaryThis bill proposes a constitutional amendment to Missouri that would explicitly protect the right of citizens to keep and bear arms for defense of their home, person, family, and property. It establishes that any restrictions on these rights must meet a high legal standard known as strict scrutiny, while also allowing the state to maintain bans on firearms for convicted violent felons and individuals deemed dangerous due to mental health issues. The amendment grants counties, St. Louis, and Kansas City the authority to create their own local laws regulating firearm possession, carrying, and transfers, provided these laws include specific limitations on permit fees, validity periods, and penalties. Local ordinances must also recognize permits issued by other jurisdictions and exempt certain groups such as law enforcement officers, judges, and licensed security guards from these regulations.
