In 2021, the Biden Administration announced a new "Zero Tolerance" policy for revoking the licenses of firearm sellers, known as Federal Firearms Licensees or "FFLs." As part of this new policy, the ATF recently updated its "Federal Firearms Administrative Action Policy and Procedures."

Gun Owners of America obtained
copies of this updated ATF order, revised under the Biden Administration in January of 2022, along with the prior version that existed under the Trump Administration.

Based on a review of changes in ATF's policy, it is clear that the Biden Administration is seeking to weaponize ATF's bureaucracy against the entire Second Amendment industry.

The Biden Administration's new Zero Tolerance policy is overly harsh—seemingly intentionally so—on honest gun stores.

In fact, between January and September of 2022, ATF field offices in Charlotte, Columbus, Houston, Louisville, New Orleans, and St. Paul revoked licenses more frequently than they issued "warning conferences"—a much less severe penalty that ATF's own manual deems is necessary to "assess the FFL's potential to achieve compliance and determine any potential risks to public safety and firearm traceability."

In other words, under the Biden Administration, ATF has changed its focus from regulating the gun industry to destroying it by whatever means possible—eliminating access to firearms by putting as many gun dealers as possible out of business.

here was at least a 200% increase in FFL revocations since enactment of ATF's Zero Tolerance policy. Of course, license revocations are a lengthy process, and this number almost certainly will continue to increase. Compare Biden's Zero Tolerance policy to ATF's prior policy:

Zero Tolerance: "ATF will revoke a federal firearms license, absent extraordinary circumstances on initial violations."
Prior Guidance: "ATF
may revoke a federal firearms license under appropriate circumstances based on an initial set of violations.

Clinton was big into that. He reduced the FFLs from 270K to 90K. Mostly the kitchen table guys for not having business permits. For renewal I faxed in the front of my biz permit. Not the back which specified fortune telling. No problem. Jack.
Yes he did!
Anyone shocked by this memo? They Leftist's in govt. are out to get us white Conservative Deplorables/gun owners, see my post on the FBI's assessment of White Conservative Catholics.
