Lauren Boebert Wants to Erase ATF Records

Lauren Boebert is one the few members of Congress that’s actually worth a damn. She doesn’t just talk the talk, she’s also an action taker. Boebert is one of the few who has jumped on the anti-ATF bandwagon.

On March 8, 2022, Colorado Congresswoman Lauren Boebert came out in favor of legislative efforts to limit the ATF’s power. She has described bills that halt the creation of a gun registry as “BleachBit.” Boebert has likened legislation that aims to erase ATF files to the way Hillary Clinton allegedly erased her emails.

As AWR Hawkins of Breitbart News noted, Boebert’s comments came during a time when Texas Congressman Michael Cloud introduced the NO REGISTRY Rights ACT that would require the ATF to destroy all of the records it has acquired on gun sales and transfers. 

Cloud’s bill would instruct outgoing Federal Firearms License holders (FFLs) to destroy their sales and transfer records in order to prevent the ATF from ever getting their hands on them.

The Second Amendment Caucus, which Kentucky Congressman Thomas Massie chairs and Boebert co-chairs, backed Cloud’s bill.

In addition, Boebert talked to reporters about the legislation, stating, “Today, the ATF has a record of nearly one billion records on transactions [from FFLs.] The federal government does not need to know if or when my granny purchased a gun, dating back to the 1970s, and yet they are keeping that information.”

Boebert added, “[The NO REGISTRY Rights Act] would act like BleachBit, something that Hillary Clinton made famous, and would require that these records be deleted.”

Boebert stands out for her principled defense of the Second Amendment, which is something rare among most Republicans. The average Republican will yammer on about how they support the Second Amendment when they go on the campaign trail. But when the rubber meets the road, i.e. when legislative season starts, these politicians fold and become useful idiots for Gun Control Inc.

Thomas Massie has good company with Lauren Boebert in the Second Amendment Caucus. If we want to see any meaningful Second Amendment reforms, we will need dozens of Boeberts and Massies elected. 

That’s just the cold, hard arithmetic behind any kind of political change at a state legislature.
