"I call on Congress to ban bump stocks, pass an assault weapon ban, and take additional action to save lives – send me a bill and I will sign it immediately," Biden released in a statement, touting his support for ATF.
Rough week for the ATF. It lost the bump stock case in the Supreme Court and lost the pistol brace case in Texas. In the end, the Biden Administration will have to look to Congress to make changes in gun laws on issues like bump stocks. https://t.co/MuJSGNBmgv
