Another Gun Rights Victory

 STATE OF WASHINGTON; STATE OF CALIFORNIA; STATE OF COLORADO; STATE OF CONNECTICUT; STATE OF DELAWARE; DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA; STATE OF HAWAII; STATE OF ILLINOIS; STATE OF MAINE; STATE OF MARYLAND; COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS; STATE OF MICHIGAN; STATE OF MINNESOTA; STATE OF NEW JERSEY; STATE OF NEW YORK; STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA; STATE OF OREGON; COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA; STATE OF RHODE ISLAND; STATE OF VERMONT; COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA; STATE OF NEW MEXICO; STATE OF WISCONSIN v. UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF STATE (9th Cir. 2021).

Some years back the Dept. of State declared instructions for printing 3D guns to be controlled munition exports, making Internet distribution unlawful.  The Trump Administration did away with this rule.  A few states sued the Dept. of State demanding that information remain unlawful to speak or distribute.  The 9th Circuit told the states above to go pound sand.  The primary reason seems to be that Congress directed that these decisions were not subject to judicial review.
