**Unconstitutional Overreach: Congress Unites Against Gun Control**
In a bold stand for Second Amendment rights, 41 members of Congress have taken decisive action against what they perceive as unconstitutional overreach by the Department of Justice (DOJ) regarding gun registration.
Led by Representative Andrew Clyde, these lawmakers have sent a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi, demanding an end to the DOJ’s defense of the National Firearms Act (NFA) in light of recent legal developments.
The NFA, originally enacted in 1934, imposed hefty regulations and taxes on specific firearm categories, but recent legislative changes have significantly undermined its foundation.
The "One Big Beautiful Bill Act," signed into law by President Trump in July, eliminated the $200 tax associated with items governed by the NFA. This landmark reform was seen as a victory for gun owners across the nation.
However, the DOJ's insistence on maintaining registration requirements for these now tax-free items has sparked outrage among lawmakers.
In their letter, Clyde and his colleagues argue that if the tax has been abolished, the justification for a national gun registry simply evaporates. They note that the DOJ’s attempts to liken these items to "Weapons of War" is a misleading narrative designed to stoke fear and push a liberal agenda.
Additionally, the DOJ's claims about the supposed susceptibility of NFA items to criminal misuse echo standard anti-gun rhetoric, which has become a hallmark of the Biden administration’s approach to firearm regulation.
Clyde’s letter underscores the constitutional principles at stake. It asserts that the registration requirements are inherently linked to the historic taxation provisions of the NFA. Without the tax, maintaining a registry appears to contradict both the text of the statute and Supreme Court precedents.
The congressmen emphasize the need for collaboration with the DOJ to affirm Second Amendment rights rather than entrenching government overreach. With President Trump now leading the nation, the momentum seems to be shifting back in favor of gun owners’ rights.
Lawmakers hope that their unified stance will lead to a reevaluation of the DOJ’s current position. Their dispute highlights a critical point: the government should not be empowered to maintain any kind of gun registry without a valid constitutional basis.
As this debate continues to unfold, it is essential for every American to recognize the implications of these legislative actions on individual liberties. The push against unconstitutional gun control remains a rallying cry for conservatives who understand the critical importance of the Second Amendment in preserving personal freedoms.
