The U.S. Supreme Court is reviewing several cases related to gun laws.

The U.S. Supreme Court is currently reviewing several cases related to gun laws and other significant issues. One of the cases involves a federal law that disarms domestic abusers. This law has been used as a deterrent in the past 25 years, rejecting about 78,000 attempts to buy guns by people with active protection orders. The case involves a Texas man, Zackey Rahimi, accused of domestic violence and threatening to shoot his girlfriend. The court's decision could impact other cases where gun laws have been questioned, including the prosecution of Hunter Biden.

Another case under review involves a Texas man who no longer wants guns, which could potentially expand gun rights protections. The court is also reviewing a free speech case brought by the N.R.A. against a New York official and a case questioning the legality of the Trump administration's ban on bump stocks.

In addition to gun laws, the Supreme Court is also discussing a case seeking compensation from oil companies for the threat posed by coastal land loss. It's also considering the increased use of the process by which the justices hear and resolve emergency appeals, known as the shadow docket. Another case under review involves a provision in the federal Lanham Act that directs the Patent and Trademark Office to refuse to register any mark that identifies a particular living individual.

In political news, President Biden recently addressed the nation, and Democrat Dan McCaffery won in the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. Virginia Democrats have taken full control of the statehouse, and the House voted to censure Rep. Rashida Tlaib over her Israel-Hamas rhetoric. A measure in Colorado that would have lowered property tax by eating into tax refunds was rejected.
