The Supreme Court is taking up a major Second Amendment case that challenges the federal ban on gun ownership for marijuana users, a 60‑year‑old law that affects millions of legal medical cannabis patients. Critics, including former Pennsylvania DA Rob Greene, argue the ban is outdated and unconstitutional, while the Trump administration defends it as a key public‑safety measure. The justices will now decide whether cannabis users deserve a carve‑out in federal firearms law.

Fresno Unified trustees tabled a resolution that would have formally opposed the city’s SEDA (Southeast Development Area) plan, voting 4–3 to set it aside after a tense, hours‑long meeting. Board President Veva Islas blasted the plan as harmful to Fresno Unified and even warned Mayor Jerry Dyer that “threats from the mayor do not deter me,” while other trustees argued the issue falls outside the school board’s jurisdiction.

A California judge has blocked the state from revoking more than 20,000 immigrant truck drivers’ licenses, allowing them to keep working despite pressure from the Trump administration to cancel them over alleged clerical issues. The ruling puts California at odds with federal officials, who have threatened $160 million in penalties and even the state’s ability to issue commercial licenses if it doesn’t comply.
