Greetings honorable justices,
Today, I am suing to declare the legislation known as the "Federal Assault Weapon and Automatic Weapon Ban Act" to be unconstitutional.
My case rests on constitutionality, as in the federal constitution, in Article II, Section III, it says
The Senate shall have the power, except where limited elsewhere by this Constitution,
to lay and collect taxes, duties, imposts, and excises, and to distribute the revenue thus collected;
to regulate foreign trade and inter-regional commerce;
to establish uniform laws of naturalization;
to regulate the value and coinage of the national currency;
to establish a uniform system of weights and measures;
to establish post offices and post roads;
to define and punish crimes committed on the high seas;
to declare war, issue letters of marque and reprisal, and make laws governing the capture of land and water;
to raise, support, and regulate the national armed forces;
to admit new states and territories to the Union;
to make laws governing borrowing, lending, and the selling of stocks and bonds;
to confirm or reject nominations for the Supreme Court and the officers of executive departments;
to establish a central national bank;
to make laws necessary for the enforcement of the Constitution and federal law;
to regulate voter registration and federal elections;
to regulate independent expenditures for political communication;
to impeach the President, Vice President, Justices and Associate Justices of the Supreme Court, and other officers of this government for high crimes and gross negligence.;
to establish, consolidate, alter, or terminate independent agencies led by non-playable officials, leaving it to the discretion of the President to control department structure and the existence of any playable principal officers, if any at all, which the President may appoint to roles in the agency, with the advice and consent of the Senate;
to make uniform rules for bankruptcies;
to temporarily grant inventors, authors, and artists exclusive patents or copyrights for their creations; and
to constitute tribunals inferior to the Supreme Court of Atlasia.

You can conclude by Article II, Section III that the Senate, or in Article III, Section VI of the Fourth Constitution, the Congress of Atlasia does not have the power to ban or to prohibit, and in the "Federal Assault Weapon and Automatic Weapon Ban Act", there are numerous cases of the Act banning or prohibiting various things in this bill.
Thus, it is in the view of the petitioner that the "Federal Assault Weapon and Automatic Weapon Ban Act" is unconstitutional and the petitioner asks that the honorable Justices of the Court strike the law or parts of the law down.
I thank the honorable justices for their attention.
