The firearms industry, including gun sellers, could be sued for alleged violations of Illinois law under legislation approved by Illinois lawmakers. Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul, a Democrat, spearheaded the proposal. State senators gave the bill a final vote Thursday, and Gov. J.B. Pritzker says he will sign it. The federal Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act broadly exempts gun makers from being sued for injuries caused by criminal misuse of their products. But the 2005 law provides exceptions, including an allegation that a manufacturer or seller violated state or federal law on the sale or marketing of firearms.

The firearms industry, including gun sellers, could be sued for alleged violations of Illinois law including marketing to young people under legislation Illinois state senators approved Thursday.

“Gun violence is a public health epidemic, and those who encourage unlawful use of a firearm or target sales of firearms to minors worsen the scourge of gun violence in our communities," Pritzker said in a statement. “This legislation finally protects Illinoisans from predatory actions by the firearms industry.”
