Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger signed SB 749 into law on Thursday, May 14, making Virginia one of the latest states to enact an “assault weapons” ban—joining at least ten others, with Rhode Island’s own ban also set to take effect July 1, 2026. Within hours, the law was hit with two separate legal challenges filed on parallel tracks—one in state court under the Virginia Constitution, one in federal court under the Second Amendment. The July 1 effective date means both cases are on an emergency footing from the start. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem.... We've been tempted to believe that society has become too complex to be managed by self-rule, that government by an elite group is superior to government for, by, and of the people. Well, if no one among us is capable of government himself, then who among us has the capacity to govern someone else? All of us together, in and out of government, must bear the burden. The solutions we seek must be equitable, with no one group singled out to pay a higher price. — Ronald Reagan |
