Incoming House Judiciary chair puts Dettelbach, ATF on notice

When Republicans take control of the House come January, it will provide the first opportunity for real oversight over executive branch agencies in a couple of years, and it looks like the GOP is ready to shine a spotlight on the actions of the ATF and its director Steve Dettelbach in the new year.

Rep. Jim Jordan, who’s expected to chair the House Judiciary Committee in the next session of Congress, has sent a letter to Dettelbach calling out the agency he oversees for allegedly failing to respond to record requests and demands for information about the ATF’s new and pending rules on unserialized firearms and pistol stabilizing braces. In his letter, Jordan warns the ATF director to get ready for a grilling.
 

Jordan also told Dettelbach his committee “may be forced to resort to compulsory process to obtain the material we require,” warned it “may require prompt testimony from ATF employees” and asked Dettelbach to “preserve all existing and future records and materials in your possession” relating to the gun rules.
