BELLEVUE, WA – The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms has launched a national grassroots mobilization effort to convince the U.S. Senate it must reform the National Firearms Act (NFA) as part of the “One Big, Beautiful Bill.”
“The Senate Finance Committee has adopted key provisions in the reconciliation bill that align with our demands to reform the National Firearms Act (NFA),” CCRKBA Managing Director Andrew Gottlieb said. “These include removing suppressors, short-barreled rifles (SBRs), and short-barreled shotguns (SBSs) from NFA restrictions while eliminating the $200 tax stamp for most items, and ending decades of unconstitutional red tape.
“CCRKBA has joined scores of gun rights organizations in a letter to the Senate leadership, urging them to keep these provisions in the reconciliation bill,” Gottlieb continued. “You can add your name to the letter from Reform NFA Now by clicking on this link. The letter is manually updated weekly so check back in a week and in the meantime share it with your friends.”
The Hearing Protection Act safeguards hearing health by making suppressors accessible, while the SHORT Act ends the arbitrary regulation of SBRs and SBSs. Eliminating NFA taxes removes financial barriers to exercising our constitutional rights. These measures, championed by millions of gun owners, are now within reach, Gottlieb explained.
“The Senate Finance Committee’s legislative text, found at finance.senate.gov, incorporates these changes, marking a monumental victory for gun owners,” the CCRKBA alert notes. “However, the battle is not over. Senate leadership must ensure these provisions remain in the final reconciliation bill, and they need to hear from you.”
Majority Leader John Thune: (202) 224-2321
National Republican Senatorial Committee Chairperson Tim Scott (202) 224-6121
Finance Committee Chairman Mike Crapo (202) 224-6142
“The reconciliation process allows these reforms to bypass filibuster obstacles, but political pressures could weaken or remove them. We cannot allow decades of unconstitutional NFA restrictions to persist,” Gottlieb said. “These measures, championed by millions of gun owners, are now within reach.”
