On Constituting America: Should a Governor Issue an Executive Order to Restrict People’s Ability to Carry Guns for Protection?

Oct 25, 2023 | Talk

Last month, the governor of New Mexico issued a temporary public health order restricting the carrying of firearms in Albuquerque and Bernalillo County. The bipartisan pushback against this order was swift, and she later amended the order to only apply to parks and playgrounds. From where, if anywhere, did the governor derive such a power? Does this conflict with the Second Amendment and laws that allow for the carrying of firearms? This is the topic we are discussing today. Joining our all-star student panel, we are honored to have John R. Lott, Jr., President of the Crime Prevention Center, as our special guest for this important discussion.
