And the Supreme Court turning away a challenge to a New York state law that 
allows civil lawsuits against gunmakers, wholesalers, and dealers. 
A gun industry trade group brought the lawsuit after former Democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo signed the bill into law in 2021. 
The legislation requires the gun industry to use reasonable safeguards to protect against gun trafficking, theft, and straw purchases where an individual buys a firearm for someone else. 
National Shooting Sports Foundation appealed a lower court ruling upholding the law last year. 
Gun manufacturers including Smith Wesson, Beretta, Block, Sig Sawyer, and others joined the appeal, arguing that New York's law is unconstitutional and that it conflicted with federal law. 
The protection of lawful commerce in arms act shields the gun industry from civil liability when its products are used in crimes. 
A clause under the Constitution means federal laws take precedence over conflicting state laws.
