"Illinois Gun Registry Deadline Passes Amid Controversy and Non-Prosecution Stance"

TL;DR Summary
Illinois' gun registry, part of Gov. JB Pritzker's assault weapons ban, saw only 1.2% compliance from firearm owners, reflecting widespread resistance. The Illinois State Rifle Association (ISRA) criticized the move as confusing and unconstitutional, with plans to appeal to the Supreme Court. The next meeting to discuss registry rules is set for January 16th, after the registration deadline, adding to the confusion. Meanwhile, Republican congressional candidate Darren Bailey publicly refused to comply, echoing the sentiment of many gun owners in the state.
