GOP AGs ask SCOTUS to hear Mexico's lawsuit blaming US gun manufacturers for cartel violence
Fox News
A group of 27 Republican attorneys general is asking the Supreme Court to hear a case brought by Mexico that seeks to hold U.S. gun manufacturers responsible for cartel gun violence.
Brianna Herlihy is a politics writer for Fox News Digital.
The case stems from a lawsuit filed in 2021 by the Mexican government, alleging U.S. gun manufacturers like Smith & Wesson, Ruger and others should be liable for gun violence carried out by cartels south of the border because the companies were aware their firearms were being trafficked into the country.
Mexico's lawsuit was dismissed by a federal judge in Massachusetts last year, but Mexico successfully appealed its case to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit, with the support of California and other Democrat-led states.
