2026年1月21日,肯塔基州立法委员会通过一项法案,允许18至20岁者获得临时隐形携带许可证。 A Kentucky bill allowing 18- to 20-year-olds to obtain provisional concealed carry licenses passed a legislative committee on January 21, 2026. 这项措施由共和国萨凡纳·马道克斯提出,旨在促进对已经拥有投票权、军事权和合同权的青年进行枪支安全培训。 Introduced by Republican Rep. Savannah Maddox, the measure aims to promote gun safety training for young adults who already have voting, military, and contractual rights. 申请人需要背景调查和培训,但学校、法院和国会仍然禁止隐藏携带。 Applicants would need background checks and training, but concealed carry remains banned in schools, courthouses, and the Capitol. 该法案在共和党扩大枪支权的更广泛努力中取得进展,尽管对青年安全的关切依然存在。 The bill advances amid broader Republican efforts to expand gun rights, though concerns about youth safety persist.
