'Vindictive': California Gov. GavinNewsom's new anti-gun bill slammed by firearm groups
The law permits citizens to sue distributors of illegal weapons, components that can be used to make"ghost guns" without serial numbers, .50-caliber rifles, and those who sell guns illegally to people under 21 years of age. But now, gun manufacturers and activist groups are hinting at suing California over the measure.
Groups such as Gun Owners of California have argued that the measure infringes upon the right to bear arms established in the Second Amendment. During the signing ceremony, Newsom conceded that the measure would likely be met with court challenges. He pointed to the Texas abortion law the measure is modeled after that the Supreme Court left unscathed.
Part of the gun law, titled SB 1327, maintains that the law would become"inoperative" in the event of the Texas abortion law being invalidated. Last year, Texas enacted a controversial abortion law restricting the procedure after a fetal heartbeat is detected. In a bid to circumvent Supreme Court precedent preventing states from enforcing such a measure , the bill would be enforced by civil lawsuits as private citizens could sue providers of illegal abortions.
