Attorney General Pam Bondi has embarked on a frantic bid to win over gun rights advocates as her department faces mounting questions over its bungled handling of the Epstein files.
Proposed changes to regulations set by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), a division of the Justice Department, would loosen restrictions on the private sale and shipping of guns, as well as changing purchase forms to feature applicants’ biological sex at birth, The Washington Post reports.
Officials had reportedly hoped to announce the changes in time for the National Shooting Sports Foundation trade show in Las Vegas, beginning Tuesday, where Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche is billed to speak. But sources told the newspaper the plans are still being finalized.
