Supreme Court to Hear Case That Could Expand Concealed Rights
The Supreme Court agreed Monday to hear a major gun rights case that could expand Americans’ ability to legally carry concealed firearms.
The announcement by the court comes as justices nominated by Republican presidents have established a 6-3 majority on the bench with the confirmation of Associate Justice Amy Coney Barrett last October.
The court previously declined to review this case and other gun cases last June, when Barrett’s seat was held by Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the high-profile left-leaning justice who died last September.
