The Justice Department sent a warning letter to Montgomery County, Maryland, stating that its ban on carrying firearms in houses of worship violates the Second Amendment. The county's ordinance, signed by Democratic Executive Marc Elrich, was updated in response to a state Supreme Court ruling. The DOJ cited previous Supreme Court decisions, including Wolford v. Lopez and New York State Rifle and Pistol Association v. Bruen, in its argument. The letter comes amidst a series of attacks on religious institutions in recent years.
