SAF and Allan Gottlieb decided to challenge provisions of Washingtons universal background check Initiative 594 through the federal courts. Yesterday, the judge threw out the case based on a lack of standing.
WA state has avoided arrests even when activists broke the transfer portion of the law during protests. So we are at a standoff. If anyone gets charged under the law, they get "standing" in federal court.
Meanwhile, Gottlieb is appealing the decision.
