Newsnation: Attorney Andrew Lieb Discusses New Mexico Gun Ban Emergency Order: Is it Constitutional?

Attorney Andrew Lieb discusses New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham's emergency order temporarily banning the carrying of guns in one county. Lieb analyzes whether the order violates the Second Amendment based on last year's Supreme Court decision in NY State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen. He also addresses concerns raised by the local sheriff and argues the focus should be on stopping gun violence, not just debating constitutionality.
