Matt Gaetz Calls To Abolish The ATF After Agency Issues Rule Allegedly Making It Harder For Certain People To Buy Guns
Republican Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz introduced legislation Wednesday that would abolish the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) after they enacted a rule that would make pistol stabilizing braces illegal for anyone without a certain license.
The legislation, titled the “Abolish the ATF Act,” would totally eliminate the ATF immediately after the bill is enacted. Gaetz introduced the bill after the ATF announced they would make gun owners face the possibility of being charged with a felony if they do not register their firearms with the stabilizing braces.
Gaetz said that the House GOP has the ATF in their “crosshairs.”

“House GOP has the ATF in their “crosshairs.” “
It’s SHOW Time…..
For some.
These bills are theater. You want the ATF dead, Gaetz? Then zero out its funding.
Bet he voted for the budget that just gave them a hugh pay raise, something like %14 I’ve read. Probably won’t even get enough co sponsors to make it to committee.
