Summary
The Supreme Court is poised to make a major ruling on Illinois’ assault weapons ban — a case that could upend similar laws nationwide. With new state firearm restrictions rolling out, gun rights advocates see a potential turning point. NRA’s John Commerford highlights recent Second Amendment victories, especially Bruen and the Hawaii concealed carry ruling, as signs the Court is leaning toward gun owners. He warns states like Illinois and Connecticut that bans on semi-automatics — now seen as everyday consumer items — may soon face legal jeopardy. Meanwhile, the Justice Department is ramping up its defense of Second Amendment rights and investigating delayed background checks in Virginia.
