Quick Glance: Gun Manufacturers Seek US Supreme Court Appeal in Mexico's Lawsuit

- 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.
