HB 2391 Kansas House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Prohibiting the carrying of a concealed handgun in the state capitol and providing exceptions for law enforcement and members of the military.

HB 2391 prohibits carrying concealed handguns within the Kansas state capitol complex, including all buildings and grounds of the capitol. It directly affects all individuals entering the capitol, with exceptions for law enforcement officers, active-duty military personnel, and others specifically authorized under the law. The bill amends existing statutes to clarify that concealed carry is illegal in the capitol without requiring proof of intent, while maintaining existing exceptions for authorized personnel. It repeals prior provisions about firearm access in the capitol and specifies that "capitol complex" includes all state-owned buildings and grounds designated for the capitol.
