Utah Gov. Spencer Cox (R) signed legislation Friday to abolish the requirement that law-abiding citizens acquire a concealed carry permit in order to carry a concealed handgun for self-defense.

The NRA-ILA reports that Cox signed House Bill 60 into law. They noted that HB60 allows “a law-abiding adult to carry a concealed firearm in the State of Utah, without first needing to obtain government permission.”

And what has happened to the "gun violence" rate in those 17 states?
What? Speak up, Schumer. Speak up, Fartwell.
Nothing?
OK, just checking.

Does this apply to both UT residents and visitors or only residents?

I think Utah was the first to allow campus concealed carry also. Regardless of the rules of any public university.
