US EditionFederal trial set to begin over Oregon’s tough gun control measure approved by voters
- A federal trial in Portland, Oregon, will determine whether the state's voter-approved gun control law, which requires safety training, background checks, and bans high-capacity magazines, violates the U.S. Constitution.
- The law was challenged in both state and federal court, with opponents arguing that it violates the Second Amendment right to bear arms and violates the Oregon Constitution.
- The ruling is likely to be appealed, potentially to the U.S. Supreme Court, and the legal battle over the measure is expected to continue. Supporters of the law argue that it could reduce gun violence and suicides in the state.
