Earlier this month Gov. Chris Christie loosened New Jersey’s gun laws by executive order.

The Legislature’s two Democratic majority leaders today announced a plan to roll back Christie’s order, especially the part that makes it easier to qualify for a firearm carry permit.

“If these regulations were adopted, it would allow every cab driver, pizza delivery driver, Uber driver and anyone else living or working in a high-crime neighborhood to qualify for a firearm permit,” said Sen. Loretta Weinberg.

Currently one must show a “justifiable need” to carry a gun because of a specific threat to one’s life.
