ATF would be abolished, gun businesses affected

This bill would abolish the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). The text does not say when this would start or where ATF’s duties would go. Firearms dealers, manufacturers, importers, and license holders would lose ATF licensing and compliance services. People who file ATF permits or approvals could see changes, since no replacement process is named. Enforcement of federal gun, explosives, alcohol, and tobacco laws would change, but the bill does not explain how.
