Attorneys General File Amicus Brief in Support of Handgun Age Requirement
Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes filed a joint amicus brief alongside 21 other attorneys general to support the federal government’s prohibition of handguns and ammunition to those 21 and older. The attorneys general filed with the U.S. Court of Appeals 5th Circuit. The amicus brief is written “on the merits,” making arguments on how the Court should have ruled on a case it already agreed to hear. The coalition argues that the Second Amendment allows for governmental regulations, such as the federal age requirement to purchase handguns and ammunition. The federal handgun restriction law is currently followed in 19 states, including Michigan. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/michigan-in-focus/support
