The Supreme Court is Poised to Upend Gun Violence Prevention Laws

The Supreme Court is poised to gut state gun violence prevention laws against the democratic will of most Americans.

The Republican Party has long aligned itself with gun manufacturers and lobbyists, pushing an aggressive agenda to remove common-sense protections that curb gun violence — even as gun violence reaches all-time highs. In the case New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, the Court may side with a New York gun lobbyist group to strike down state laws that require permits for concealed-carry guns.
