WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court said on Friday that it will take up its latest gun rights case and consider striking down a strict regulation on where people can carry firearms in Hawaii.

President Donald Trump’s Republican administration had urged the justices to take the case, arguing the law violates the court’s landmark 2022 ruling that expanded gun rights by finding the Second Amendment generally gives people the right to carry firearms.

The court will consider Hawaii’s law that bans guns on private property like stores and hotels unless the owner has specifically allowing them, verbally or with a sign.
