Federal DOJ Sides With Gun Owners in Rhode v. Bonta

CRPATV

Carbon Score: 7.8

A major shift just hit California’s ammunition background check battle. In Rhode v. Bonta, the federal Department of Justice has filed a powerful amicus brief siding with CRPA — calling California’s ammunition background check regime “straightforwardly unconstitutional.” Even more significant, 25 states and the Arizona Legislature have joined in support. CRPA Volunteer President and constitutional attorney Chuck Michel joins us to break down what this means as the case heads to an en banc panel at the Ninth Circuit. We discuss legislative animus, California’s broken DOJ databases, why these laws exist to frustrate lawful gun owners, and how this unprecedented federal support could influence oral arguments scheduled for March. This is a historic moment for Second Amendment litigation — not just in California, but nationwide.
