In a bold move that underscores his administration’s commitment to expanding gun rights, former President Donald Trump has issued a sweeping executive order aimed at dismantling firearm regulations enacted during the Biden era. The order directs the Department of Justice (DOJ) to identify and reverse any policies, regulations, or agreements that may have restricted gun ownership or Second Amendment rights.
The directive places several federal agencies, including the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), under intense scrutiny. It mandates a comprehensive review of all firearm-related policies, from classifications of weapons to enforcement practices. The goal is to systematically undo what the Trump administration views as overreach in gun control measures implemented under President Biden.
This executive order signals a significant shift in the federal government’s approach to gun policy, reigniting the debate over gun rights and public safety. Critics argue that rolling back these regulations could lead to increased gun violence, while supporters applaud the move as a restoration of constitutional freedoms.
