An Oregon Court of Appeals judge on Wednesday upheld a controversial measure that would introduce stricter firearms regulations statewide. The measure, which voters narrowly approved in 2022, has faced multiple legal challenges — with one more possibly on the way.

A voter-approved gun control law, Measure 114, is constitutional, according to a ruling by the Oregon Court of Appeals.

Oregon’s second-highest court affirmed Wednesday that the voter-approved gun control law Measure 114 is constitutional, potentially clearing the way for the law to take effect after being on hold for years because of a Harney County judge’s ruling.
