WASHINGTON, D.C. – On May 19th, the Republican Study Committee (RSC) announced their FY2022 Budget entitled “Reclaiming our Fiscal Future”. For the first time, their budget, which includes over 130 Member-sponsored bills, incorporated Rep. Jeff Duncan’s (R-SC-03) Hearing Protection Act (HPA). As the largest ideological caucus in Congress with 153 members, the inclusion of the Hearing Protection Act in the RSC budget underscores the mainstream nature of both firearm suppressors and the HPA within the Republican political agenda. Although passage is unlikely in this Congress, the incorporation of the HPA into the RSC budget is a tremendous advancement for this common-sense legislation.
