Supreme Court strikes NY law (as unconstitutional) that required permits for concealed guns

Before, New Yorkers had to show they had self-defense needs to get the permit.

NY mayor not happy, nor Biden. It affects 40 states, Biden said.

NY can still require people get licenses on condition of things like background checks and mental health records, said an analyst. They can also limit guns in places like overcroweded places, courts, maybe trains.

Getting a gun is the same as before in NY. You still have to go through the same process to get a license. What is different is that anyone who has that license can concealed carry.
