Federal Court Halts Enforcement of AB 2571

 

The U.S. District Court for the Central District of California has issued a complete injunction in Junior Shooting Sports Inc. v. Bonta, stopping California from enforcing its unconstitutional restrictions on youth shooting sports.
 
This case was filed immediately after the passage of AB 2571 in 2022—just weeks after the Bruen decision. The Court’s order is clear:

“It is hereby ordered that during the pendency of this action, the named Defendant(s)…are hereby preliminarily enjoined and restrained from enforcing California Business & Professions Code §22949.80, in its entirety.”
 
This ruling protects youth shooting teams, competitions, and training opportunities across California and takes effect immediately. It follows the July decision finding the law overly broad and unconstitutional. While the state will almost certainly continue to fight, this injunction is a critical step toward a full repeal of AB 2571.
 
MAPC is proud to have represented this case alongside our colleagues and partners in the Second Amendment community. But the fight is not over—we still need your support to preserve youth shooting sports and safeguard constitutional rights.
