Giffords Law Center Lauds Nomination of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson
Feb 25, 2022
Time and again, courts across the nation have affirmed that gun safety laws are constitutional.
The gun lobby won’t stop pushing its radical interpretation of the Second Amendment in the courts. But we have common sense and evidence on our side, and we’re not backing down.
Giffords Law Center and our pro bono partners frequently draft and submit amicus—or “friend of the court” briefs—in cases challenging lifesaving gun laws.
Courts play a critical role in interpreting the Second Amendment, and have helped form a consensus that gun safety laws are consistent with the Constitution.
A joint effort by our country’s premier gun violence prevention organizations, the Firearms Accountability Counsel Taskforce works with the nation’s preeminent law firms to challenge the gun lobby in court and protect Americans’ most fundamental freedom—the right to live.
