What LEOSA covers in Arizona
The Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act (Arizona included) lets a qualified active-duty law enforcement officer carry a concealed firearm notwithstanding most state and local restrictions on concealed carry by private persons. The federal statute preempts laws of general application against concealed carry.
It does not override federal facility statutes (notably 18 U.S.C. § 930), and it explicitly preserves the authority of states and private property owners to restrict carry on government and private property. In practice, that means many courthouses, schools, and government buildings in Arizona remain off-limits even for officers carrying under LEOSA.
Officers in Arizona should verify three things before relying on LEOSA at a specific facility: (1) the facility's own posted policy; (2) any state-specific statute governing that category of facility; and (3) whether the facility falls under a federal preemption carve-out.
