\"Senate
Chipman barely survived the first vote on his nomination.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee split along party lines today over whether to recommend David Chipman to head the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chipman must still be confirmed by the full Senate, but the Senate rarely approves executive nominations if a committee reports a nominee as unfavorable. The party-line vote could predict a similar vote in the Senate, where Democrats hold the tie-breaking advantage with Vice President Kamala Harris.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe tie will require Senate Democrats to jump through some procedural hurdles to advance Chipman’s nomination, but it is not an insurmountable roadblock,\u201d according to Reuters<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chipman is a longtime gun control advocate, has voiced support for a ban on \u201cassault weapons,\u201d and has spoken contemptuously of new gun owners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDavid Chipman spent the last 10 years unapologetically lobbying for gun control on Capitol Hill and getting paid to do Michael Bloomberg\u2019s bidding,\u201d said NRA-ILA Executive Director Jason Ouimet. \u201cHe supports extreme, unconstitutional restrictions on the right to keep and bear arms, and today\u2019s party-line vote in the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee affirms the reality that he is unfit to lead ATF.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By contrast, the gun control group Everytown for Gun Safety called Chipman \u201cuniquely qualified to lead the ATF.\u201d Chipman has previously worked as an advisor for Everytown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGun violence continues to dominate daily life in the United States, highlighting the urgent need for a permanent director of the ATF, and David Chipman is the right person with the right experience for the job.\u201d said Shannon Watts, founder of Moms Demand Action, an Everytown sub-group. \u201cDavid is someone who will ensure that the agency is doing everything in its power to stop guns from ending up in the hands of those who shouldn\u2019t have them, before they can be used to injure and kill.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the hearing, Republicans blasted Chipman as a gun-control activist who would pursue radical gun control actions and attack civil liberties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMr. Chipman wants to ban assault weapons, but can\u2019t seem to explain what an assault weapon is,\u201d said Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley. \u201cMr. Chipman has repeatedly mocked gun owners as rubes. There isn\u2019t a prominent gun controller he hasn\u2019t worked for. This nomination is like a Republican putting the NRA in charge of the ATF.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c[The ATF] is an incompetent agency in need of reform,\u201d Sen. Grassley continued. \u201cBut instead of a reformer, it gets an activist.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sen. Mike Lee quoted a social media post authored by Chipman in which the nominee advocated for arresting people \u201cbefore committing crimes rather than responding after the fact\u201d if they fail a background check to purchase a gun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThat is a direct quote. He actually said that,\u201d Sen. Lee said. \u201cWe don\u2019t arrest people before they commit crimes. That\u2019s the sort of thing reserved for bad post-apocalyptic dystopian novels and movies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is currently no timeline for when the full Senate will take up Chipman\u2019s nomination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
