Plan to Throttle Firearm Exports\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Interim Final Rule<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0published today by Commerce Department\u2019s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) that cements the supposed 90-day firearm export \u201cpause\u201d into permanent policy and creates additional regulatory burdens. The Biden administration has demonstrated again their deepening contempt toward the firearm industry. This rule entrenches their \u201cwhole of government\u201d attack and is intended to hobble the firearm industry\u2019s ability to compete in the international market under the false pretense of advancing U.S. national security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe enmity of the Biden administration against the firearm industry and Second Amendment rights is without parallel. This is deeply troubling the lengths to which this administration will go to turn the levers of government against a Constitutionally-protected industry in order to cozy up to special-interest gun control donors,\u201d said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President &amp; General Counsel. \u201cThe supposed \u2018temporary pause\u2019 to review firearm export policies was a farce. It was an effort to buy the administration time to gin up policies that would strike at the heart of the ability of this industry to stay in business. This has been the end goal since President Biden said from the Democratic debate stage that \u2018firearm manufacturers are the enemy.\u2019 This is a wholesale attack on the industry that provides the means for Americans exercising their Second Amendment rights.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Interim Final Rule was the result of BIS re-examining firearm export licenses in light of national security concerns. That reasoning, however, rings hollow.\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.atf.gov\/firearms\/docs\/report\/nfcta-volume-ii-part-iv-crime-guns-recovered-outside-us-and-traced-le\/download\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"nssf-critical-of-commerce-dept-plan-to-throttle-firearm-exports\" title=\"NSSF Critical of Commerce Dept.

The pause, which lasted over 180 days, was clearly an attempt to undermine the Export Control Reforms for firearm and ammunition exports that were initiated by the Obama-Biden administration and completed by the Trump administration. The total economic impact of the Interim Final Rule easily exceeds $250 million to U.S. manufacturers and exporters, far above the farcically low estimates BIS has been telling NSSF and the Hill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/public-inspection.federalregister.gov\/2024-08813.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"nssf-critical-of-commerce-dept-plan-to-throttle-firearm-exports\" title=\"NSSF Critical of Commerce Dept. Plan to Throttle Firearm Exports\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Interim Final Rule<\/strong><\/a>, firearm export licenses will be reduced from a four-year lifespan to just one year. There will be three new Export Control Classification Numbers (ECCN) for semiautomatic rifles, pistols and shotguns. Licenses will be approved on a case-by-case basis that will consider foreign policy, national security risk factors, government corruption, diversion of firearms and human rights abuses among other criteria. BIS is stating there will be a presumption of denial for firearm export licenses to those countries arbitrarily identified by the State Department as \u201cat risk,\u201d which include 36 countries \u2013 mostly in Latin America, the Caribbean and Southeast Asian countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All existing previously approved firearm export licenses to so-called \u201chigh risk\u201d countries will be revoked 60 days after with the Interim Final Rule takes effect May 30, 2024. Those U.S. companies with existing firearm export licenses will be required to re-apply for new licenses. The public comment period will remain open until July 1. NSSF is considering its legal options and will simultaneously submit written comments demonstrating the true economic impact and the harm to American businesses, jobs and local economies wrought by this politically-driven policy change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-about-nssf\"><strong>About NSSF<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>NSSF is the trade association for the firearm industry.
