WASHINGTON, DC (June 17, 2020) — Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) has issued the following statement regarding possible ATF action to ban millions of firearms and devices:
For years, the ATF has issued opinions and guidance, which the People of the United States have relied on to purchase legal products, including brace devices and firearms with them, to stay in compliance with the law. Our understanding is that, rather than tackling important issues and restoring Americans’ access to our fundamental rights, the ATF again may put its policy preferences above the liberty and interests of the People, our Constitution, and the rule of law. No one deserves to be imprisoned for taking the government at its word. But it is clear that the government cannot be trusted. If the ATF moves forward with yet another ban, then it will put a nail in the coffin of public trust and institutional integrity.

So far, every single article about this topic leads back to the same, second-hand, source. A political source, mind you, who is making political hay with the "revelation". Pardon me, but I remain skeptical, and shall remain so until there is more, shall we say, verifiable and objective confirmation.

I encourage skepticism, particularly towards NFA/GCA and ATF/FBI alphabet soup.They've certainly earned it.
All you can eat skepticism on State-ism, have a seat and tuck in, my friend.
Idk if FPC or Florida Rep Matt Gaetz (or the handful of lawmakers) has earned that skepticism, but I know that the NRA has.
Congressman Matt Gaetz announced today on his podcast the ATF is crafting secret rules restricting the possession of certain pistol braces by American citizens, and that he has sent them a letter demanding they stop.
"We understand that ATF is currently considering restricting one arm brace model owned by over 700,000 Americans," Congressman Gaetz writes along with six other members of Congress. "We strongly urge ATF to cease taking any actions and reconsider or rescind any secret determinations which call into question the legality of firearms owned by millions of law-abiding Americans."
“There is always a need to vindicate our Second Amendment rights,” Gaetz says on his podcast, "Hot Takes with Matt Gaetz."
He explains that even during very conservative administrations, like President Trump’s, some do “try to make it more difficult to acquire things that shooters need and gun owners need, for safety and for the unique circumstances that an individual may have.”

They seem to have taken down my previous link demonstrating that we are a captured and captive voting block who will not betray those who undermine our agenda after we vote them in...
This link should be good, but I haven't learned to timestamp this source, somewhere like 28 minutes in is the admission that your vote is already counted in the GOP column.

apparently the word b*tchute is inappropriate
It does begin with the Meredith Brooks 1997 hit song...so we can forgive the algorithm, and offer the tinyurl
By now we may have forgotten the point of posting this at all...so allow me to reset it.
WE pro-RKBA voters are a captured and catalogued voting block, and they don't need to pay off our loyalty, they will abuse us just as minority voters in urban areas are betrayed by Democratic politicians who have run cities and states for decades. This is why the ATF continues to abuse us under a "Champion" POTUS.
