Stop ATF's Rollback of Gun Regulations

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) and the Department of Justice (DOJ) [have proposed rolling back](https://www.atf.gov/rules-and-regulations/atf-launches-new-era-reform) more than three dozen gun safety regulations, marking one of [the most sweeping federal gun deregulation pushes in years](https://archive.ph/lAbEA). The [most consequential changes](https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/trump-administration-takes-major-steps-to-roll-back-gun-regulations) include rolling back a rule intended to close the gun show loophole, reducing regulations on short-barrel rifles and bump stocks, and loosening restrictions on gun ownership for people with a history of mental illness. In addition to threatening public safety, the changes also stand to further enrich the Trump family. Among the rollbacks is "[Revising Firearms Transaction Record](https://www.regulations.gov/document/ATF-2026-0001-0001)," a proposal to eliminate the requirement that background checks happen in person and to rescind a century-old ban on mailing handguns through USPS. Notably, [these changes would directly benefit GrabAGun](https://archive.ph/5ZlBd), an online gun retailer for which Donald Trump, Jr. is a paid consultant. Don Jr. joined GrabAGun’s Board of Directors shortly after his father was re-elected in 2024 and [owns 300,000 shares in the company](https://www.wbkb11.com/news/politics/national-politics/trump-jr-s-amazon-of-guns-could-make-millions-under-new-proposed-firearm-rule/article_4ec55368-71bf-5182-a23d-15120510a4d2.html) that touts itself as “the Amazon of guns.” Demand your representatives in Congress push back on these dangerous and corrupt changes to existing gun regulations. You can also [submit a public comment](https://www.regulations.gov/document/ATF-2026-0001-0001) to oppose the "Revising Firearms Transaction Record" rule change.
