Bill 118 hjres 164, also known as the "Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Department of Commerce relating to 'Revision of Firearms License Requirements'", is a piece of legislation currently being considered by the US Congress.
The bill aims to overturn a rule proposed by the Department of Commerce that would revise the requirements for obtaining a firearms license. The rule in question has sparked controversy and debate among lawmakers and the public, with some arguing that it would make it easier for individuals to obtain firearms, while others believe it would enhance safety measures.
If passed, Bill 118 hjres 164 would use the Congressional Review Act to nullify the Department of Commerce's rule, effectively preventing it from being implemented. This process allows Congress to review and potentially overturn regulations issued by federal agencies.
Supporters of the bill argue that the Department of Commerce's rule would weaken gun control measures and potentially put public safety at risk. On the other hand, opponents believe that the rule is necessary to streamline the process for obtaining a firearms license and ensure that law-abiding citizens have access to their Second Amendment rights.
As the debate continues in Congress, it remains to be seen whether Bill 118 hjres 164 will ultimately be passed and what impact it will have on firearms regulations in the United States.
