26 AGs Oppose Biden Admin.
Definition Of Gun Dealers

A coalition of state attorneys general has signed a letter opposing the ATF's proposed rule on selling firearms, calling it unconstitutional.

More than two-dozen state attorneys general have signed a letter opposing what they call "the Biden administration's shocking and unconstitutional attack on American's right to keep and bear arms" for proposing a rule that anyone selling even a single firearm for profit must obtain a federal license.

Attorneys general from Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wyoming joined the letter led by Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen, Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach, and Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird. Additionally, the Arizona legislature joined the letter.

This is not the first time Republican state attorneys general have weighed in on Second Amendment issues. They have also supported challenges to restrictive 'gun control' laws.

"The proposed regulation clearly violates the Second Amendment," Kobach said in a prepared statement. "For as long as this country has existed, individual law-abiding Americans have sold firearms to friends and family. Doing so would become extremely difficult if this regulation were to take effect. My colleagues and I will do everything necessary to stop this from happening." .....
