WHEREAS:
The Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution clearly states, “the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed;” and
WHEREAS:
For years, the ATF has taken it upon itself go above and beyond mere law enforcement by undertaking illicit programs like “Fast and Furious;” and
WHEREAS:
ATF has repeatedly attempted to bypass Congress in order to legislate bans on guns and accessories; and
WHEREAS:
Anti-gun Representative Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX-18) is pushing H.R. 48, a bill to hire of hundreds of new agents to force the gun control agenda on the American people.
THEREFORE:
As your constituent, I urge you to vote against H.R. 48 and any legislation that rewards the ATF’s unconstitutional actions with more personnel, funding, or power.
