Assault Weapon Bans Upheld by Supreme Court

The Supreme Court decides not to hear appeals challenging assault weapons bans in New York and Connecticut.

FOX’s Jon Decker has more from the White House:

In the aftermath of the deadly mass shooting in Orlando, the Supreme Court has rejected challenges to assault weapons bans in Connecticut and New York.

The justices are leaving in place a lower court ruling that upheld laws that were passed in response to another mass shooting involving a semi-automatic weapon, the elementary school attack in Newtown, Connecticut.

Seven states and the District of Columbia have enacted laws banning assault weapons
