Blackwater 53393 Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 From Senator Blackburn December 2, 2022 Dear Thomas, Thank you for contacting me regarding the regulation of pistol stabilizing braces by the Bureau of Alcohol, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). I appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts with me. The Second Amendment protects the right to keep and bear arms, and this cherished right stems from the rich history of our country’s founding. Law-abiding citizens who are gun owners should not be subjected to unconstitutional abridgements of their rights. In June 2021, Attorney General Merrick Garland signed a proposed ATF regulation that would reclassify certain firearms equipped with stabilizing braces as rifles under the National Firearms Act. In response to this proposal, I joined 47 of my colleagues in sending a letter to the Attorney General and the ATF expressing our opposition to both the ATF’s characterization of stabilizing braces and the proposed regulation. I appreciate your thoughtful comments. Protection of the Second Amendment is dear to me, and you may be assured this matter has my attention. I am opposed to restrictions on firearms that could unfairly target hunters, homeowners, and law-abiding citizens. Please be assured that I will keep your thoughts in mind as I continue to oppose to this change in ATF policy. Again, thank you for taking the time to contact me. If you would like regular updates on my work for Tennessee, please sign up for my weekly newsletter or follow me on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. Sincerely, Marsha Blackburn United States Senator Nice to know that that vote wasn’t wasted! Link to comment
