It sounds interesting, and I like it, but I do have some questions...

Blocking funding for implementation of the UN Small Arms Agreement is great, and I support anything that sticks it to the UN, but it's not yet a treaty for us, is it? I thought the Senate hadn't ratified it.

Preventing the ATF from banning bullets seems like a tall order. Better to force the ATF to actually read their rules and follow them.

Banning any future legislation seems like it would be unconstitutional and potentially counter-productive. One day they will get the votes they need, and then where will our side be? Constrained by the same prohibition.

Forcing the ATF to stop copying 4473s would be nice as long as they delete all the copies they already have, and that will never happen. Better to require all 4473s be emailed to Hillary Clinton. That way no one will ever see them.
