Gun Policy and Second Amendment

Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon announced Monday that the DOJ Civil Rights Division has launched a dedicated Second Amendment section to enforce gun rights, pledging increased federal action against state and local restrictions. Dhillon said the unit will target high concealed-carry permit fees, lengthy processing delays, and bans on firearms inconsistent with recent Supreme Court precedent, citing an early-term executive order from President Trump and promising 'a lot more action' from DOJ.
