Does anyone know which states have parking lot laws that allow employees to keep firearms locked in their vehicles? I’m looking for an updated list and how these laws differ from state to state.

In the United States, so-called “parking lot gun laws” are in place in states such asTexas, Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Oklahoma, and . These laws generally permit employees to store legally owned firearms inside locked vehicles while parked at work. Specific rules and exceptions differ by state.
In a number of states in the United States, there are also the laws of the parking lot which defends the right of the employees to park their legally obtained firearms locked in their cars in the work place. States that have such laws are **Florida, Texas, Oklahoma, Kentucky, Tennessee as well as Indiana. Certain regulations depend on state and employer exemptions can be used.
Other U.S. states with parking lot laws include Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Kansas, and Arizona. These laws generally allow employees to keep legally owned firearms locked in their personal vehicles in workplace parking areas, though conditions and exceptions differ by state.

If you’re talking about “parking lot laws” (the ones that protect your right to keep a firearm locked in your car at work), they’re mostly a U.S. thing and exist in a bunch of states, not just one or two big ones include Texas, Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Indiana, Oklahoma, Kentucky, Mississippi, Alabama, Arizona, and a few others; the exact rules vary a lot though (some allow employer exceptions, some don’t), so it’s always worth checking your specific state’s version before assuming you’re covered.
