On June 23, the U.S. Supreme Court scrapped a New York
law requiring individuals to show "proper cause" in order
to obtain a license to carry a firearm outside a home.
'Newsweek' reports that the 100-year-old law was challenged by the New York State Rifle & Pistol Association and gun owners Brandon Koch and Robert Nash.
Koch and Nash reportedly argued that they were denied
unrestricted gun licenses by the state due to allegedly
failing to meet "proper cause" requirements.
All that we decide in this case is that
the Second Amendment protects the right
of law-abiding people to carry a gun outside
the home for self-defense and that
the Sullivan Law, which makes
that virtually impossible for most
New Yorkers, is unconstitutional, Samuel Alito, Supreme Court Justice, via 'Newsweek'.

Because I cannot agree with the Court's
decision to strike New York's law down without
allowing for discovery or the development
of any evidentiary record, without considering
the State's compelling interest in preventing
gun violence and protecting the safety
of its citizens, and without considering
the potentially deadly consequences
of its decision, I respectfully dissent, Stephen Breyer, Supreme Court Justice, via 'Newsweek'.

On July 4, 2023, Louisiana Judge Terry Doughty

Ultimately, Justice Amy Coney Barrett wrote that the lower court "glossed over complexities in the evidence" and

Supreme Court Rejects , Challenge to Tax Law on, Foreign Investments.
On June 20, the Supreme Court upheld a tax on foreign
corporate investments enacted by a Republican-controlled
Congress under former President Donald Trump.
On June 20, the Supreme Court upheld a tax on foreign
corporate investments enacted by a Republican-controlled
Congress under former President Donald Trump.
NBC reports that the case had attracted scrutiny when
conservative Justice Samuel Alito refused to recuse
himself despite ties with one of the challenging lawyers.
The case revolved around whether an individual can be
forced to pay taxes on investments in foreign-owned
companies regardless of if they were a source of income.
The case revolved around whether an individual can be
forced to pay taxes on investments in foreign-owned
companies regardless of if they were a source of income.
According to the 16th Amendment
of the Constitution, Congress has the
power to "collect taxes on incomes.".
In the case, Charles and Kathleen Moore claim they were
unfairly taxed on their $40,000 investment in an
India-based company called KisanKraft Machine Tools. .
While the company made a profit, the Moores
claim that they received no dividends and that
the money was reinvested in the business.
As a result, the Moores did not pay taxes between
2006 and 2017 on what the U.S. government later
defined as income from their investment. .
Due to a provision that was part of a major tax law
enacted by former President Donald Trump in 2017,
the Moores paid $15,000 in additional taxes.
They later sought a refund for that payment,
arguing that they had been unlawfully taxed
based on an increase in the value of a capital
investment not qualifying as income.
The couple's challenge was rejected
by the Supreme Court 7-2
