Murphy administration and gun-rights advocates call it 'devastating,' but for different reasons
The judge’s order in New Jersey suspends, for now, impending requirements that gun carriers purchase liability insurance — a requirement that would have been the first statewide mandate of its kind.
The judge also blocked another provision that required references for gun carry applicants to be interviewed in-person, which the judge wrote was “unduly burdensome.”Gov. Phil Murphy and legislative Democrats moved to curtail the impacts of a U.S. Supreme Court ruling last summer that expanded the scope of who can carry guns outside the home.
A spokesperson for the governor called the decision “misguided and erroneous.” Murphy has consistently pushed to tighten the state’s already-strict gun laws throughout his governorship.
