A Trojan Horse for Gun Control:
The ATF-DEA Merger Must Be Stopped
The White House has just proposed a dangerous plan to merge the ATF and the DEA. This isn’t about streamlining government—it’s a Trojan Horse that threatens our Second Amendment rights like never before.
What This Merger Could Mean for Gun Owners
X A Bigger, More Powerful ATF:
The merger would triple the ATF’s budget and quadruple its tactical units, creating a supercharged agency with even less oversight and accountability.
X Increased Threats to Your Rights:
A combined ATF-DEA would have over 10,000 new employees, amplifying the potential for overreach, harassment, and unconstitutional actions against gun owners.
X A Step Toward Gun Control:
This isn’t about abolishing the ATF. It’s about empowering it to further infringe on your God-given right to keep and bear arms.
GOA has fought the ATF’s overreach for decades, from their illegal gun registry to their attacks on law-abiding gun dealers.
We won’t stand idly by while this merger threatens to create a monster agency that could further erode our freedoms, but we need your help to stop it.
Sign the petition, urging the White House NOT to merge the ATF and the DEA into one agency.
The ATF has a long history of targeting law-abiding Americans, shutting down gun stores for minor clerical errors, surveilling pro-gun communities, and even resorting to violence against citizens. Merging it with the DEA only makes it stronger and harder to hold accountable. We can’t let this happen.
