National Shooting Sports Foundation Responds to New York Times Editorial
This video discusses the National Shooting Sports Foundation's (NSSF) response to a New York Times editorial concerning the EPA's potential regulation of ammunition. Larry Keane, NSSF General Counsel, explains that legislation (S. 838 and H.R. 1558) aims to clarify that the EPA lacks jurisdiction over firearms and ammunition, a stance previously upheld by the EPA itself. The NSSF argues that attempts to ban lead ammunition components by environmental groups like the Center for Biodiversity are a pretext to ban hunting and shooting sports, which would devastate wildlife conservation funding derived from excise taxes on ammunition.
