The US Department of Justice has published proposed rules to restore Second Amendment rights to certain non-violent felons, a move predicted by constitutional attorney Mark Smith. This administrative process aims to address individuals prohibited from firearm possession under 18 USC 922G, particularly those convicted of non-violent offenses, by focusing on current dangerousness rather than past convictions. The initiative is framed as a restoration of rights consistent with Supreme Court precedent like the Raheem case and Third Circuit rulings.

ATF in the Northern District of Texas, which seeks to halt the ATF's actions due to alleged violations of administrative processes and Second Amendment rights. The case has been stayed pending the ATF's final rule, expected in December 2022, after which it is anticipated to be reactivated and potentially amended to include arguments based on the Supreme Court's Bruen decision regarding historical tradition.
