Tuesday, June 13, 2000) -- The moment of truth has arrived.
Clinton's illegitimate grab of power will go on trial as early as
tomorrow in the House of Representatives.
Pro-gun Rep. John Hostettler (R-IN) is taking aim at gun control
policies imposed by President Clinton this past March when his
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) agreed to back
door gun control with firearms manufacturer Smith & Wesson.
The Clinton & Wesson pact regulates and restricts the sales of ALL
firearms sold by dealers carrying S&W products -- including Glocks,
Berettas, Brownings, etc. Moreover, no gun can be sold by an S&W
dealer until the FBI gives a definitive "yes" or "no." Thus, if the
FBI's computers go down (like they did just a few weeks ago) no S&W
dealer can transfer a firearm until the government's computers go
back online and the FBI gives its verdict.
Per the terms of the agreement, government bureaucrats will sit on
an Oversight Commission, helping to enforce the Clinton & Wesson
accord. Most notably, the commission will include BATF agents -- a
fact that should concern gun owners everywhere.
Rep. Hostettler plans to offer two amendments to the VA-HUD funding
bill this week. One amendment will defund HUD's ability to enforce
the agreement. The other will stop HUD's ability to "organize,
implement, manage, promote, coordinate, or administrate" any gun
control coalition efforts in which they are currently involved.
(HUD has been helping to organize state and local officials in an
anti-gun "Communities for Safer Guns Coalition.")
ACTION: Please contact your Representative and urge him to SUPPORT
the Hostettler amendments to the VA-HUD appropriations bill. (The
bill is scheduled for debate tomorrow, even though it still does not
have a bill number.)
Tell your Congressman it's outrageous for the President to bypass
Congress and impose gun control upon the people of this nation.
Moreover, it's outrageous that your tax dollars are helping organize
anti-gun coalitions around the country. No more! Tell him you
support Hostettler's amendments 100 percent. The GOA Legislative
Action Center is available at http://www.gunowners.org/activism.htm
so you can locate and contact your Representative. The Capitol
switchboard may be called toll-free at 1-888-449-3511, or at
202-225-3121.
