(The Center Square) – In today’s edition of Illinois in Focus Daily, The Center Square Editor Greg Bishop previews some of what the expectations are from the Seventh Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals oral arguments in the gun and magazine ban set for Monday afternoon in Chicago. He also shares voices from gun owners and gun rights advocates, including Dan Eldridge of Federal Firearms Licensees of Illinois about an event scheduled after the oral arguments.

Bishop also shares moments from two separate memorializations that happened over the weekend of two men from Illinois, former Illinois Gov. Jim Edgar and Turning Points USA founder Charlie Kirk.
