美国司法部周三宣布，已针对两个州提起诉讼，指控其对特定类型枪支销售实施的限制“违宪”。
在弗吉尼亚州，司法部针对一项自动武器销售禁令提起诉讼。在加利福尼亚州，司法部则就一项新出台的法律提起诉讼，该法律限制销售部分可通过改装成为“可转换为机枪的手枪”的枪支。加利福尼亚州的这项法律于7月1日正式生效。
在一份声明中，代理美国司法部长表示，“宪法不是建议”，且“第二修正案是所有美国人都拥有的神圣权利”。
司法部表示，针对弗吉尼亚州（同时起诉该州及州警方）的诉讼指控一项新法律“违宪禁止了数百万美国人拥有的普通半自动步枪的买卖”。
司法部在一份新闻稿中称：“弗吉尼亚州的这项法律将商业购买AR-15风格步枪定为犯罪行为。AR-15步枪是美国最受欢迎的步枪。弗吉尼亚州对这项新禁令的执行，是该州执法人员系统性剥夺弗吉尼亚公民根据第二修正案所享有的购买和出售武器宪法权利的行为模式。”
司法部在另一份新闻稿中表示，针对加利福尼亚州的诉讼旨在叫停该州的格洛克手枪禁令，并阻止加利福尼亚州“枪支名册”制度的执行，该制度对合法购买的枪支类型设置了限制。司法部将该禁令和名册制度都描述为非法行为。
代理司法部长托德·布兰奇在一份声明中表示：“第二修正案是所有美国人都拥有的神圣权利，即便加州民众也不例外。”
就在上述声明发布的前一天，美国最高法院宣布将在下一个庭审期内审议第二修正案是否保障民众拥有AR-15风格步枪的权利。
上个月，最高法院在两项独立裁决中推翻了夏威夷一项限制在对公众开放的私人场所携带枪支的法律，并支持了一名挑战联邦禁令的德克萨斯州男子，该禁令禁止特定吸毒者持有枪支。

Justice Department sues Virginia, California over gun laws
July 1, 2026 / 12:00 PM EDT / CBS News
The Justice Department announced Wednesday that it had filed lawsuits against two states for what the DOJ alleged are “unconstitutional” restrictions on sales of certain types of guns.
In Virginia, the DOJ targeted a law that banned the sale of automatic weapons. In California, the DOJ is suing over a newly-enacted law that restricts the sale of some firearms with a trigger that could be modified into a ” machinegun-convertible pistol.” The California law went into effect on July 1.
In a statement, acting U.S. attorney general saying “the Constitution is not a suggestion” and that “the Second Amendment is a sacred right belonging to all Americans.”
The DOJ said its Virginia suit — which is against both the state and the state police — alleges that a new law “unconstitutionally bans the purchase and sale of ordinary semi-automatic rifles owned by millions of Americans.”
“The Virginia law makes the commercial purchase of AR-15-style rifles a crime,” the DOJ said in a news release. “The AR-15 rifle is the most popular rifle in America. Virginia’s enforcement of the new ban is a pattern or practice of conduct by the commonwealth’s law enforcement officers that deprives the citizens of Virginia of their constitutional right to buy and sell arms protected by the Second Amendment.”
The DOJ said in a separate news release that its suit against California seeks to halt the state’s Glock ban and prevent enforcement of California’s “Handgun Roster,” which limits what legal firearms can be legally purchased. It characterized both the ban and the roster as unlawful.
“The Second Amendment is a sacred right belonging to all Americans, even those in California,” said acting Attorney General Todd Blanche in a statement.
The announcements come one day after the Supreme Court said it will consider in the next term whether the Second Amendment guarantees the right to have AR-15-style rifles.
In two separate rulings last month, the Supreme Court struck down a law in Hawaii that restricted guns on private property that was open to the public and high court sided with a Texas man who challenged the federal ban that barred certain drug users from having firearms.
