Rep. Barry Moore slams restriction on civilian firearm export licenses

Washington, D.C. — Rep. Barry Moore (AL-02) recently co-sponsored the Protect American Gun Exporters Act, introduced by Rep. Mark Green (R-TN). The bill stops the current export license pause and prevents the Department of Commerce from taking any substantially similar actions in the future unless standard rulemaking procedures are followed. Moore also signed a letter written by Rep.Green demanding answers on the unprecedented and reckless restriction on civilian firearm export licenses. 

"The Biden Administration's decision to pause the issuance of export licenses for firearms, related components, and ammunition punishes law-abiding citizens and gives criminals a monopoly on the market," said Moore. "I am grateful to Rep. Green for leading the effort to stop another attempt by Biden to trample on our Second Amendment rights."
