The Biden Administration has set a new record for revoking Federal Firearms Licenses (FFLs), with a 'zero tolerance' policy leading to a significant increase in revocations. This policy, implemented through revamped inspection programs and analytical tools, is reportedly leading to revocations for minor clerical errors rather than solely for willful violations. The article highlights concerns that this approach may be an indirect method of civilian disarmament by reducing the number of legal firearms dealers.
Assembly Bill 2362 in California proposes to allow the Department of Justice to impose civil fines on firearms dealers for violations of existing prohibitions, with fines potentially reaching $1,000 for a first offense and $3,000 for subsequent offenses or those involving gross negligence. The bill is criticized for potentially creating a low barrier for the DOJ to fine or shut down gun stores through the enforcement of minor, technical violations, such as incorrect signatures on forms or using unapproved firearm lock models, which could financially cripple small businesses. The speaker urges constituents to contact their state legislators to oppose AB 2362.
