*Paxton Joins Letter Urging Senate to Reject Biden Nominee for ATF Head*
?
AUSTIN ? Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton joined a multistate letter urging the United States Senate to oppose President Biden?s nominee for Director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), Steven Dettelbach. Dettelbach has a long history of anti-Second Amendment activism. This is Biden?s second anti-gun nominee to the post, a clear indication that the Administration is devoted to stripping Americans of their God-given rights protected under the U.S. Constitution?s Second Amendment.
?
?As Americans continue to suffer from the crime wave, the ATF desperately needs a director who will crack down on violent criminals and organizations?not one who will pursue an anti-gun political agenda under the guise of law enforcement,? the letter reads.
