TL;DR Summary

A federal judge in Illinois has granted an injunction on the state's assault weapons ban, ruling it as unenforceable until a decision can be made. The judge cited past Supreme Court cases and stated that the ban seems to be written in spite of the clear directives in Bruen and Heller, not in conformity with them. The law bans the sale of certain weapons and attachments, but all other measures like background checks and needing a FOID card are unaffected by this ruling.
