Are Semiautomatic Rifles Protected by the Second Amendment?

On January 15, 2019, the Federalist Society's Civil Rights and Criminal Law & Procedure Practice Groups cosponsored a conference on "The Supreme Court and the Second Amendment." The second panel discussed the question of whether semiautomatic rifles, also known as "assault weapons," are protected by the Second Amendment.

As always, the Federalist Society takes no particular legal or public policy positions. All opinions expressed are those of the speakers.
