The proposed bill establishes a new section, 790.075, in the Florida Statutes, which defines "sensitive location" and prohibits the possession or use of firearms in such areas. Sensitive locations include a wide range of places such as healthcare facilities, government buildings, parks, places of worship, educational institutions, and venues for entertainment or sporting events. The bill outlines that individuals found in violation of this prohibition would face criminal penalties, with a third-degree felony for general violations and a second-degree felony for discharging a firearm in these locations.

However, the bill provides specific exceptions to this prohibition, allowing certain individuals, such as law enforcement officers, retired law enforcement officers, active-duty military personnel, and licensed security agency employees, to possess firearms in sensitive locations under defined circumstances. Additionally, individuals operating licensed programs in sensitive locations may also possess firearms if compliant with relevant regulations. The act is set to take effect on October 1, 2025.
