This video discusses HR 1093, the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco Firearms and Explosives Reform Act of 2011.

Key provisions include reforming administrative penalties for FFLs, distinguishing between willful violations and paperwork errors, allowing appeals to neutral administrative law judges, and improving the process for FFL applications. It also seeks to establish clear investigative guidelines for the ATF and prohibit multiple long gun sales reports, thereby enhancing gun owner privacy.
