Desjarlis Response to ATF Shelving Bullet Ban Proposal
Statement
Issues: Guns
Congressman Scott DesJarlais, M.D. (TN-04) released the following statement in response to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives' decision to suspend the proposed ban on M855 "green tip" ammunition:
"Earlier this month I joined like-minded conservatives in sending a letter to the ATF urging them to abandon the proposed ban on "green tip' ammunition. I am pleased they took our concerns as well as those of countless Tennesseans into consideration and tabled their proposal. This ban would have clearly violated American's Second Amendment rights. I will always fight against any effort that infringes upon our constitutional right to bear arms."
