Summary
A major win for gun control: A Chicago federal appeals court upheld Illinois’ assault weapons ban, rejecting claims it violates the Second Amendment and aligning with historical firearm regulations.

Governor Pritzker and AG Raoul hailed the decision, but gun industry groups are already preparing appeals, with the Supreme Court poised to weigh in — potentially reshaping gun laws nationwide.
