A
call by Rep. Eric Burlison, R-Mo., to dismantle the Bureau
of Alcohol, Tabacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) gained support Friday
from more House Republicans.
On
Jan. 7, Burlison announced H.R.
221 to abolish the ATF and thanked his original eight supporters, which
included Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., Rep Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., Rep Mike
Collins, R-Ga., and Rep. Keith Self, R-Texas, among others.
“The
ATF is emblematic of the deep-state bureaucracy that believes it
can infringe on constitutional liberties without consequence. If this agency
cannot uphold its duty to serve the people within the framework of the
Constitution, it has no place in our government,” Burlison said.
On
Friday, Rep. Mark Alford, R-Mo., Rep., Marlin Stutzman, R-Ind., Rep. Victoria
Spartz R-Ind., Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., Rep. John McGuire, R-Va., and
Rep. Russ Fulcher, R-Idaho, joined Burlison bringing the total to now 22
representatives.
“Fulcher’s
support for H.R. 221 makes him the first Idaho congressional delegate to
support the abolition of the ATF, which gun owners in Idaho have grown
frustrated with for decades now,” wrote the
Idaho Dispatch regarding Fulcher’s support.
Burlison
fired another shot Monday on X, posting: “The ATF uses your tax dollars to
violate your constitutional rights. Does that sound like freedom to you?"
He has been pushing for the elimination of bureau for several months, telling
Newsmax in November the ATF is a “rogue agency” and has been “a disaster from
the beginning.”
During
the 2024 presidential campaign, President-elect Donald Trump repeatedly called
to fire former ATF director Steve Dettelbach and to quickly reverse many of the
Biden administration’s changes. Trump has hinted he may leave the director
position vacant if Dettelbach didn’t resign, which he did last week.
“I
believe very strongly that the president needs to appoint a permanent
director,” Dettelbach said in
December. “Republicans control everything at the moment, and their inclination
has been to cut. I think having a permanent director gives ATF a stronger
voice in everything related to the budget, and other things that come up.”
