Survey after survey indicates that crime remains one of the top issues of voters as the country approaches the midterm elections (here, here, here and here, for instance). A closely related concern is soft-on-crime policies, with “a majority of voters support[ing] proposed new laws that would replace local district attorneys who fail to prosecute criminals,” and large percentages of respondents agreeing that soft-on-crime policies do nothing to improve public safety. Despite this, downgraded or dropped charges and pro-criminal bail laws continue to be the cornerstones of progressive criminal justice reform. |

When we say “brace yourself,” we’re not kidding. The pistol brace rule is coming as well. But first, a different sort of crackdown was unleashed on the nation this week, as an ATF rule published on April 26 finally took effect on Wednesday. The regulation is entitled “Definition of `Frame or Receiver’ and Identification of Firearms.” That rule is so cumbersome, complex, sprawling, and indecipherable that ATF was forced to publish an update to the “final” version on Monday, admitting: Due to the complexity of this rulemaking process and the resulting significant number of comments and revisions in response, the final rule inadvertently contained some technical errors in the regulatory text that this document corrects. |
