S 66 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Authorizes the carrying of firearms by military personnel at recruiting centers

This bill (S 66) allows military personnel assigned to state recruiting centers to carry their service-issued firearms while on duty at those locations. It directly affects military personnel working at recruiting centers in the state by overriding existing rules that might prohibit firearm carry. The key provision amends military law to explicitly authorize this, stating the adjutant general must permit it. The bill takes effect immediately upon passage, with no additional conditions or exceptions mentioned.
