Minnesota Supreme Court rules in favor of a transgender weightlifter in powerlifting lawsuit

St. Paul Mayor Melvin Carter has introduced a gun violence prevention ordinance to the city council. It would ban public possession of assault weapons and require all firearms to have serial numbers. Even if passed, the ordinance would not go into effect unless the state repeals a law that prevents local governments from regulating firearms. The Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus says it may take legal action if the city moves forward with passing the ordinance.
