Videos tagged with Executive Branch Overreach

This video details a significant legal victory for gun rights advocates, specifically the vacating of the ATF's pistol brace rule by a district court. The ruling, stemming from the case FPC v. Garland, found that the ATF violated the Administrative Procedure Act's (APA) procedural requirements in its promulgation of the rule. The speaker emphasizes that this win, while not addressing Second Amendment constitutionality directly, highlights the effectiveness of legal challenges against agency overreach and the importance of checks and balances within the U.S. system.

This video discusses a new lawsuit filed by the Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) against the ATF, challenging what is described as executive overreach. The lawsuit, based on the precedent set by West Virginia v. EPA, targets the ATF's redefinition of firearms and its 'frame or receiver' rule, which FPC argues defies the plain language of the Gun Control Act and attempts to create law through interpretation rather than congressional action. The FPC views this as a potential 'silver bullet' against the ATF's expanding regulatory authority.
