The Supreme Court is set to hear arguments in a First Amendment case brought by the NRA against a former New York financial regulator, Maria Vullo, who allegedly pressured banks and insurance companies to sever ties with the gun rights group. The case will test the extent to which government regulators can influence companies to do business with controversial entities. The NRA claims that Vullo threatened enforcement actions against firms that didn't comply, while Vullo argues that her enforcement targeted illegal insurance products. The case may turn on a meeting in which the NRA claims Vullo offered to not prosecute other violations in exchange for help against gun groups. The outcome could have implications for how regulators interact with businesses and advocacy groups.
