A bill circulating through Congress would stop the Biden administration from stockpiling records on American gun owners by altering federal law to allow firearm dealers to destroy sales records.

The bill, a copy of which was obtained by the Washington Free Beacon, is a response to the Free Beacon's January report detailing how the Biden administration's Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) has amassed nearly one billion records detailing American citizens' firearm purchases, a figure that is far higher than Congress and the public has been aware of.
