Shall Not Be Infringed Act of 2026
To provide for a cause of action enabling recovery of any person harmed by the limitation on ability to carry a firearm in a different jurisdiction.
HB7935, also known as the "Shall Not Be Infringed Act of 2026," aims to allow individuals who are harmed by restrictions on carrying firearms across state lines to seek legal recourse. Essentially, if someone is negatively affected by another state's laws that limit their ability to carry a firearm, they can now potentially file a lawsuit to recover damages.
This bill would affect individuals who find themselves unable to carry their firearms due to differing state laws, particularly those who travel between states with stricter firearm regulations. If they experience harm as a result, they could use this legislation to pursue legal action and seek compensation.
HB7935 was introduced on March 16, 2026, and has been referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary. This means it is currently being reviewed by a committee that will decide if it should move forward in the legislative process. No further action has been taken yet.
