Marijuana advocates light up Second Amendment fight at Supreme Court
A major Supreme Court case on the Second Amendment is drawing attention from marijuana legalization advocates who worry that the Trump administration’s defense of a 1968 gun ban could expose millions of recreational marijuana users to prosecution.
Advocates fear the case could expand gun-restriction penalties for cannabis users, potentially affecting those in states with legalized cannabis who own firearms or seek gun rights.
The dispute centers on whether federal law banning firearm ownership by controlled-substance users should be upheld, and how it applies to individuals in states with cannabis laws.
