TL;DR Summary

California has enacted a new law that restricts concealed carry permit holders from bringing firearms into designated "sensitive places," including amusement parks, museums, and public parks. This law is facing legal challenges, with a district judge initially blocking it for being "repugnant to the Second Amendment," but a federal appeals court allowed it to proceed temporarily. The law's future hinges on further court decisions, as it may require the Supreme Court to clarify the extent of Second Amendment protections. Governor Gavin Newsom has also signed over 20 new gun safety measures in 2023, all of which are likely to face legal scrutiny under the Second Amendment.
