Supreme Court Rules on Guns and Marijuana

The Supreme Court just handed a major win for gun rights in a landmark ruling that strikes down a federal law banning gun ownership for marijuana users — even if they use it legally in their state. In a unanimous decision, the Court sided with a Texas man, declaring the law unconstitutional under the Second Amendment. This marks another significant shift in gun rights jurisprudence since the 2022 landmark ruling, and it’s fueled by a growing divide between federal drug policy and state-level cannabis legalization. Surprisingly, both the ACLU and the NRA backed the plaintiff, while gun safety groups found themselves on the opposing side. While marijuana remains federally illegal, this ruling sets a new precedent for how drug laws intersect with constitutional gun rights — a complex legal tangle that continues to evolve as states and the federal government clash over cannabis.
