Second Amendment

Nesbitt v. U.S. Army Corps of Engineers

2nd Amendment Rights Must Be Protected on Federal Lands

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which oversees vast areas of recreational lands that are open to the public, unconstitutionally prohibits visitors from exercising their Second Amendment protected right to self-defense in every way imaginable. Thanks to Mountain Statesā€™ victory on behalf of its clients, Elizabeth Nesbitt and Alan Baker, the Corps of Engineers is currently prohibited from enforcing its unconstitutional ordinance in the State of Idaho.
