Quick Glance: Gun Manufacturers Seek US Supreme Court Appeal in Mexico's Lawsuit
- U.S. gun manufacturers are urging the U.S. Supreme Court to hear their challenge against Mexico's $10 billion lawsuit, accusing them of facilitating the trafficking of firearms to violent drug cartels along the U.S.-Mexico border.
- Eight companies, including Smith & Wesson Brands and Sturm, Ruger & Co, argued that a lower court wrongly determined that the case qualified for an exception to a U.S. law providing broad protection to the firearms industry from misuse lawsuits.
- The companies argued that without the U.S. Supreme Court's intervention, the U.S. firearms industry would face years of costly litigation by a 'foreign sovereign' attempting to push the industry into adopting gun control measures rejected by American voters.
- In its 2021 lawsuit, Mexico alleged that the companies undermined its strict gun laws by designing, marketing, and distributing military-style assault weapons they knew would arm drug cartels, resulting in murders, extortions, and kidnappings in the country.

Quick Glance: Over 68,000 illegally trafficked guns through unlicensed dealers in US, report unveils
- New data from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives reveals that more than 68,000 illegally trafficked firearms in the US came through unlicensed dealers who are not required to perform background checks.
- Justice Department officials stated this accounts for 54 percent of the illegally trafficked firearms in the US between 2017 and 2021.
- The firearms were used in 368 shooting cases, posing challenges for investigations as unlicensed dealers do not need to maintain sales records that could help federal agents trace the weapon back to the original buyer, said ATF Director Steve Dettelbach.
- The report, commissioned by Attorney General Merrick Garland, marks the first comprehensive analysis of firearm trafficking investigations in over two decades.
