“A federal judge struck down a Missouri law that blocked state and local officials from enforcing federal gun laws as unconstitutional this week. Judge Brian Wimes, who was nominated by former President Obama, sided with the Justice Department in ruling the law violates the Constitution’s Supremacy Clause, which deems federal provisions the ‘supreme law of the land’ that trump state laws. … Wimes, in granting the federal government’s summary judgment motion, opined that federal law preempts the state provision, and he ruled that SAPA is ‘unconstitutional in its entirety’ because its other sections would be rendered meaningless if the law was only partially struck down.” (03/08/23)
