NEW: 53% of all suicides in 2020 involved a firearm. States with the fewest gun laws have higher rates of suicide deaths by firearms than states with the most gun laws. See the analysis, including a few caveats. kff.org/other/issue-br…

States vary widely in suicide by firearm rates, with New Jersey and Massachusetts having 1.8 deaths per 100,000 people and Wyoming having 20.9 deaths per 100,000 people. In contrast, the rate of suicide by other means varies less across states.
