The U.S. Department of Government Efficiency has sent staff to the agency that enforces federal gun laws with the goal of revising or eliminating more than 50 rules and gun restrictions by July 4, the Washington Post reported on Friday.
DOGE is working with the general counsel of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives to cut the regulations as the Trump administration drastically reduces the number of inspectors, the newspaper reported.
The ATF, without confirming the DOGE visit in an email to Reuters, said it was "reviewing and modernizing its regulations consistent with" President Donald Trump's and Attorney General Pam Bondi's directives.
"This modernization project focuses ATF's enforcement on violent criminals, while reducing unnecessary regulatory burdens on lawful gun owners and dealers," the ATF, which is overseen by the Justice Department, said.
