SCOTUS expands gun rights in two landmark rulings on concealed carry and drug users

Two June 2026 Supreme Court rulings broaden gun rights: Wolford v. Lopez bars Hawaii’s approach that effectively bans concealed carry, while U.S. v. Hemani invalidates the federal ban on gun ownership by lawful drug users, reflecting a pro‑Second Amendment shift under Bruen and signaling that future gun regulations must have a solid historical pedigree and be appropriately targeted.

The decision could affect millions of marijuana users and the broader balance between gun rights and drug policy as states continue to liberalize cannabis rules.
