AG Jennings co-led a multistate comment letter signed by 24 states opposing an unlawful proposal by the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) to allow a flood of prohibited weapons across state borders by mail.

Since 1927, federal law—passed by a Republican Congress and signed by a Republican president—has barred the USPS from mailing certain concealable firearms. In January 2026 the Trump Administration, through a U.S. Department of Justice opinion, departed with precedent and the law alike by arbitrarily choosing to stop following the law on the erroneous basis that the time-tested statute is unconstitutional. On April 2, the USPS published a proposed rule to conform with this DOJ opinion.

“Law enforcement’s job is hard enough without the President’s plan to send guns to anyone with a mailbox. This commonsense, bipartisan gun safety legislation began as a Republican idea. It has withstood scrutiny from the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of the U.S. government for a century. The facts, and the Constitution, are as plain now as they were then. The president’s indifference to the law doesn’t change that.” – AG Jennings
