Senate committee to hold hearing on gun regulation reform

Gun Owners of America Executive Director Larry Pratt told The Daily Caller that while the bill is “well intentioned,” it does very little to actually address injustices between Americans who own firearms and regulators at the bureau.

“It will leave the problem on the table, all this effort will have been expended, and dealers and manufacturers are still going to get shafted,” he said, adding that there was probably little coincidence that the committee was taking up the bill so close to the midterm elections. “This is obviously politically motivated. When Pat Leahy supports anything that’s supposed to be on our side, you’d better keep your hand close to your revolver.”

The Judiciary Committee will hold the hearing on September 14 on Capitol Hill.
