Uh oh.

They could have simply let the appeals court decision stand, and that would have affirmed the individual right, but only in DC.

The fact that they want to take it means they will either reverse the appeals court or reaffirm it, but expand it to include all the circuits.

I wish this case had come out of a state instead of DC...

It couldn’t have come from a state. Similar have been tried, but state laws obfuscate the issue too much. This case makes it crystal clear at the federal level; once THAT is clarified, THEN we can move to the states.
