The Second Amendment Foundation, Texas State Rifle Association, and Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms — alongside individual plaintiffs — have filed a motion for summary judgment in Jensen v. ATF.
The filing argues that the National Fi****ms Act’s registration requirements for suppressors and short-barreled rifles are now unconstitutional. When Congress passed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act eliminating the NFA’s tax on these items, it removed the only constitutional basis on which the Act was upheld — Congress’s taxing power.
Without a tax, the government can’t enforce registration as a “taxing measure,” nor justify it under the Commerce Clause. The brief also argues that these arms are protected under the Second Amendment and that no historical tradition supports the NFA’s modern regulatory scheme.
