This video, presented by William Kirk of Washington Gun Law, details the implications of Illinois' Public Act 102-1116, also known as the Protect Illinois Communities Act.

The analysis draws parallels to Washington State case law, specifically State v. Flannery, to support the argument that such registration mandates can be unconstitutional.
