The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday agreed to take up a case brought by the National Rifle Association (NRA) against a New York official in which the longtime pro-Second Amendment group accuses the regulator of infringing on its free speech.

Maria Vullo, former superintendent of the New York State Department of Financial Services, urged banks and insurers to consider “reputational risks” in working with the NRA in the wake of the Parkland mass shooting in 2018, court filings show.
