New York businesses would have to opt in to allow guns on their property under one measure state lawmakers are considering.

Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins said a new session could come 'in the next week or two'Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins said a new session could come 'in the next week or two'New York businesses would have to opt in to allow guns on their property under one measure state policymakers are considering for a special session that could come within a matter of days.

Gov. Kathy Hochul said Friday the measure is being discussed among her staff and legislative leaders as they weigh when to return to the Capitol to pass a slate of measures to dull the potential consequences of the court’s decision.“I would love to see it done next week, but we also have people who have arrangements,” she told reporters in Manhattan. “I’m working very hard to get it done next week, before the holiday.

On Thursday, Hochul said she wants to approve a bill that would allow businesses and private property owners “protect themselves” in the event someone tries to bring a gun onto their property. “There could be a presumption that businesses, unless they put a sign welcoming someone with a concealed carry weapon, would be automatically excluded,” Hochul said. “So, we’re looking at a number of ways. Our judgment now is that those would be sound, but we’re just going to verify that.”
