Florida Lawmakers Approve Bill to Arm Campus Staff with Guns: A Response to School Shootings

Florida lawmakers have passed a bill allowing trained faculty and staff to carry firearms on public college and university campuses. The measure, which expands the states school guardian program, aims to deter or respond to active shooter situations. The bill passed with strong Republican support and is expected to be signed by Governor Ron DeSantis. The new law requires employees, not students, to undergo rigorous training and psychological evaluations to become campus guardians. It also mandates that colleges establish shooter response plans and mental health resources.
