Friends, I didn’t want you to miss this news that came out over the busy holiday week.
DOGE is raiding the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) with the goal of revising or eliminating dozens of public safety rules and gun restrictions.
Trump and Elon Musk’s DOGE agency is famously secretive, and we are still waiting to see the final damage. According to early reporting, the Trump administration is: - Making it easier for people with serious mental health concerns to buy guns
-
Allowing more untraceable homemade weapons, known as ghost guns, to flood into our communities
- Restoring gun rights to criminal offenders, including domestic abusers
-
Essentially eliminating federal inspections of gun dealers, giving gun traffickers permission to break the law.
With federal law enforcement being gutted, the PA State Police must step up to enforce the law in our state. The PA State Police already have the authority to ensure licensed gun dealers follow the law and to take action when they don't.
Please sign the petition to urge the state police to close the inspection gap by increasing inspections of gun dealers in Pennsylvania. |
I’ll continue to be in touch with ways you can take action.
In community, Adam Garber Executive Director CeaseFirePA
