Lauren Boebert and Eric Burlison are making a bold move with a one-page bill.
Their aiming to dismantle the ATF.
The reason?
Their regulations trample on Second Amendment rights.
What part of “shall not be infringed“do these people not understand?
The ATF agency infringes on constitutional freedoms.
I have a feeling they won’t be the only agency that will be abolished.
Maybe that’s why so many Democrats are panicking.
Their whole unconstitutional, agency-supported system will be dismantled.

Fox News reports:
Hardline conservative Reps. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., and Eric Burlison, R-Mo., have introduced legislation that would abolish the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF).
The one-page bill would eliminate the law enforcement agency, which regulates firearms and prosecutes federal gun crimes, in addition to crimes involving explosives, acts of arson, bombings, acts of terrorism and illegal activity related to alcohol and tobacco products.
In statements, the Republican lawmakers argue ATF regulations violate the Second Amendment rights of Americans to keep and bear arms.
“I cannot imagine under any circumstance or administration where the ATF serves as an ally to the Second Amendment and law-abiding firearm owners across America,” said Boebert.
“The ATF is emblematic of the deep-state bureaucracy that believes it can infringe on constitutional liberties without consequence,” added Burlison. “If this agency cannot uphold its duty to serve the people within the framework of the Constitution, it has no place in our government.”
Here’s a clip of her from nearly 2 years ago talking about the ATF.
Perhaps this year they’ll finally be abolished.
The ATF has lost the trust of the American people.
I look forward to bringing this agency’s leaders to the Oversight and Accountability Committee so they can explain why the ATF should remain an agency. pic.twitter.com/wK37Knpf6A
