US EditionSupreme Court takes case that could allow more guns in malls and restaurants
The case challenges Hawaii's 2023 law restricting gun carry on private property open to the public, testing Second Amendment limits and potentially affecting similar laws in five states.
- Friday, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to hear whether states may bar carrying guns on private property open to the public, including malls and restaurants, as it builds a term starting Monday.
- The challenge began after permit-holders and Hawaii Firearms Coalition sued, saying Hawaii law bans guns on private property open to the public unless owners expressly allow them, covering stores, beaches, bars and restaurants.
- Historical analysis will be at the heart of arguments as judges deciding Second Amendment cases must consider a 1771 New Jersey law and an 1865 Louisiana law cited by the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.
- President Donald Trump's administration urged the court to take the case, arguing the law inverted long-standing presumptions, while Alan Alexander Beck said businesses could still restrict guns if challengers win.
- It is the first major Second Amendment case in over a year, with the Supreme Court's term also addressing executive power and transgender rights amid split lower court rulings.
