Congress Blocks ATF Rule Defining Who Must Be Licensed as Firearms Dealer.
This resolution aims to nullify a new rule issued by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) concerning the definition of who is 'Engaged in the Business as a Dealer in Firearms.' If passed, the resolution prevents the ATF's expanded definition from taking effect. This means fewer private sellers may be required to obtain federal licenses and conduct background checks.
Key points
Congress seeks to disapprove the ATF rule defining who qualifies as a firearms dealer.
Blocking the rule maintains the current standards for private gun sales, potentially exempting more sellers from federal licensing requirements and mandatory background checks.
