Randy Kozuch, Executive Director of the NRA Institute for Legislative Action (NRA-ILA), released the following statement on today's posting of the DOJ/ATF Final Rule dealing with the definition of firearms dealers:

“This latest Biden Administration attack on law-abiding gun owners is a blatant attempt to coerce Americans to forego legal activity with firearms under threat of potential confiscation of their lawfully acquired and constitutionally protected property. The Administration has conceded that it cannot enforce this unlawful rule in criminal cases because they know that it exceeds the limited authority granted to them by Congress and, in some cases, expressly contradicts the statutory text. NRA is already working to use all means available to stop this unlawful rule.”
