142 House Members Sign Letter to ATF

WASHINGTON, DC - Today, 142 House Republicans sent a letter to ATF regarding the Bureau’s blatant overstep of authority with regards to their recent Form 1 denials. Spearheaded by House Judiciary Committee members Andy Biggs (AZ-5) and Ranking Member Jim Jordan (OH-4), it is essentially a companion to the letter Sen. Steve Daines and 25 of his Senate colleagues sent yesterday.
“The ATF continues to infringe on the constitutional liberties of law-abiding Americans. This has gone long enough,” said Congressman Andy Biggs. “ATF is ignoring years of precedent to restrict individuals’ ability to make their own silencers. I’ve heard from my constituents how this arbitrary change is negatively impacting them. This is unacceptable. The ATF is overstepping its authority and it must explain its actions to Congress and the American people.”
“President Biden and his radical Democrat allies have continuously attacked our most fundamental liberties. Now, the Biden ATF is attempting to further restrict the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding American citizens. Americans have had enough and deserve to know why the Biden Administration believes that the mere possession of otherwise legal items are now considered to be violations of federal law,” said Ranking Member of the House Committee on the Judiciary Jim Jordan (OH-4).
