The New York attorney general's lawsuit against the NRA is no mere “witch hunt,” a New York judge has ruled in dismissing the gun rights advocacy group's claims that the case is a vendetta. The decision means the nearly 2-year-long legal fight can proceed.
“Our fight for transparency and accountability will continue,” she said in a statement.
“The NRA believes the NYAG’s pursuit was fueled by her opposition to the association and its First Amendment activities in support of the Second Amendment,” he said in a statement, using an abbreviation for the attorney general’s title. Democratic and Republican senators have been talking about a framework for addressing the issue, but no agreement has been announced.
