The Texas Supreme Court has ruled against Attorney General Ken Paxton's attempt to block the State Fair of Texas' no-gun policy.
Paxton had sought to overturn the ban, arguing it violated state law, but the court denied his request for a temporary injunction just hours before the fair's opening. The decision means attendees will not be allowed to carry firearms into the fairgrounds, a policy that will remain in place for the duration of the event.
The ruling marks a significant defeat for Paxton, who has been a vocal advocate for gun rights in Texas.
