The Supreme Court unanimously ruled Thursday for the National Rifle Association in a dispute over whether a New York state official had violated the group’s First Amendment rights when she told companies to consider their reputations in doing business with the gun rights group.

In a unanimous ruling, Justice Sonia Sotomayor said the group plausibly argued that its rights were violated, reversing the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals decision to dismiss the lawsuit. In the aftermath of the 2018 mass shooting at a high school in Parkland, Florida, Ms. Vullo said that financial services companies should consider whether they should serve pro-gun organizations like the National Rifle Association.
