Gun-Advocacy Group Continues Fight For Illinois FOID Card Secrecy

CHICAGO -- A gun-advocacy group is pushing ahead with a lawsuit over firearm owner identification cards in Illinois even though a favorable new state law appeared to give them just what they sought: a prohibition on the public release of gun-holder names.

The Illinois State Rifle Association wants to continue the lawsuit in hopes a judge will eventually establish an unassailable constitutional right to keep the ID-card data secret, the group's attorney, Stanley Tucker, said Wednesday.
