Youngkin vetoes Virginia assault weapons ban, signs 2 gun control measures
Quick Glance: Youngkin signs 2 gun control measures in Virginia
  • Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin vetoed an assault weapons ban passed by the state Legislature and instead signed two more limited gun regulations into law.

  • Youngkin signed laws banning gun trigger switches that can make firearms fire automatically and allowing criminal charges against parents who allow children access to weapons deemed threats.

  • While praised by gun control activists, they urge him to do more, emphasizing that the work does not stop here.

  • The signing of the two gun control bills by Youngkin is seen as a step in the right direction, showing that America's gun violence crisis does not have to be accepted as inevitable.

Quick Glance: Lawsuit Against Fleet Farm for Violating Gun Control Act in Minnesota
  • Minnesota's Attorney General Keith Ellison has updated the lawsuit against Fleet Farm by alleging that the retailer breached the state's gun control law through repeated sales of firearms to individuals acting as "straw purchasers" who then supplied these weapons to prohibited felons.

  • Recently, U.S. Magistrate Judge John Docherty permitted the state to amend its initial 2022 lawsuit to include the new accusation following a clarification by Minnesota's Supreme Court regarding Ellison's investigative and enforcement authority.

  • Minnesota is currently pursuing civil penalties for each infringement of the gun control act and the state's law against public nuisance.

  • Fleet Farm's legal representatives have contested the modifications, contending that Ellison lacks the authority to civilly enforce a criminal penalty that does not pertain to consumer protection.
