Congressman Bob Good (VA-05) introduced the Federal Agent Responsibility Act to curb federal government overreach and protect the Second Amendment rights of all Americans. The legislation prohibits the FBI and ATF from coordinating with local law enforcement to carry out “no-knock” raids that pose an unreasonable risk to the public.
“The Biden Administration continues to weaponize every part of the executive branch to infringe on the rights of all Americans,” said Congressman Good. “Law abiding gun owners in my district and across the country should not live in fear that federal agents will come knocking at their door to confiscate their guns. My bill will provide a check on this administration and ensure no-knock raids are not exploited to violate the constitutional rights of law-abiding citizens.”
This legislation was introduced in tandem with Congressman Scott Perry (PA-10) in a package of bills protecting the Second Amendment rights of all Americans. The Protecting Gun Rights and Due Process Act, led by Rep. Perry, strengthens the due process rights of gun owners by requiring notice, an opportunity to be heard, and legal adjudication before placing an individual on the prohibited persons list.
“As Joe Biden and leftist controlled federal agencies continue their assault on the Second Amendment, we refuse to stand idly by and let them harass law-abiding Americans,” said Dudley Brown, President of the National Association for Gun Rights. “That’s why we sat down with Representatives Good and Perry – we need strong legislation to fire back at the incessant anti-gun policies of Biden and his machine.”
