Federal Judge Rules Against National Firearms Act Regulations, Citing Tax Rationale Obsolescence

Federal Judge Rules Against National Firearms Act Regulations, Citing Tax Rationale Obsolescence

A federal judge in Texas has ruled against certain regulations under the National Firearms Act (NFA), stating that their original tax rationale is no longer applicable. The decision came after Congress eliminated federal taxes on making and transferring sound suppressors, short-barreled rifles, and shotguns in 2025. U.S. District Judge James Hendrix concluded that without the tax component, the regulations exceed Congress's enumerated powers. The ruling affects consolidated lawsuits involving gun owners, businesses, and gun rights groups, and it challenges the constitutional basis of the NFA's regulatory provisions.

Federal Judge Rules NFA Registration Scheme for Suppressors and Short-Barreled Rifles Unconstitutional

Federal Judge Rules NFA Registration Scheme for Suppressors and Short-Barreled Rifles Unconstitutional

A U.S. District Court judge in Texas has declared the registration requirements for suppressors and short-barreled rifles under the National Firearms Act (NFA) unconstitutional. This decision follows the enactment of the One Big Beautiful Bill, which eliminated the $200 tax on these firearms but left the registration requirements intact. The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and other plaintiffs argued that without the tax, Congress lacks the constitutional basis to enforce these registration requirements. The ruling is seen as a significant victory for gun rights advocates, who have long challenged the NFA's provisions. SAF plans to use this precedent to challenge similar regulations in other jurisdictions.

Houston Sued Over Alleged Unlawful ICE Detention by Police

Houston Sued Over Alleged Unlawful ICE Detention by Police

Erick Lopez, a Honduran man deported earlier this year, has filed a lawsuit against the City of Houston, claiming unlawful detention by the Houston Police Department (HPD). The lawsuit alleges that HPD officers detained Lopez for two hours during a traffic stop to allow ICE agents to take him into custody, violating his constitutional rights. This legal action follows Houston's revision of its policy on police cooperation with ICE, which was amended after Texas Governor Greg Abbott threatened to withhold public safety funding. The revised policy permits officers to wait a 'reasonable' time for ICE when dealing with civil immigration warrants.

Galveston County Plans to Change Voting Maps Between Primary and General Elections, Raising Concerns

Galveston County Plans to Change Voting Maps Between Primary and General Elections, Raising Concerns

Galveston County in Texas is planning to implement a new voting map for the upcoming November general elections, despite having already conducted primary elections under a different map. This decision was revealed during a federal court hearing by Joe Nixon, an attorney representing the county. The move has sparked controversy as it could potentially alter the districts of local candidates between the primary and general elections. Pro-voting plaintiffs have filed an emergency petition with the Texas Supreme Court to block the implementation of the new map, arguing that it violates voters' constitutional rights by denying them the opportunity to choose their preferred candidates in the primary. The plaintiffs warn that this could set a dangerous precedent, allowing similar actions across the state, undermining the democratic process.
