Senate Committee Will Take Up 'Reform' Bill That Would Protect Corrupt Gun Dealers

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
September 9, 2010

The Senate Judiciary Committee has announced plans to hold a hearing
next Tuesday on a bill that would severely undermine the powers of a key
Federal law enforcement agency to police the nation's most reckless gun
dealers.

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) "Reform
and Firearms Modernization Act," would severely undermine federal gun
law enforcement and protect corrupt gun dealers. The legislation would
make it virtually impossible for ATF to revoke the licenses of gun
dealers who violate federal law.
