Title: Major Obama Gun Regulation is FINALLY UNDONE!

A major gun regulation put in place by Obama has finally be undone!

The Senate voted to overturn Obama’s regulation allowing management of social security assets by a third party and the restriction of legal gun ownership by American senior citizens.

From Right Wing News

In December 2016, former President Barack Obama’s White House put in a rule requiring the Social Security Administration to snitch on anyone needing third- party assistance to manage their Social Security benefits and to enter them into the National Instant Criminal Background Check System, which had the other consequence of barring them from purchasing a firearm.

The trouble of course is the expression of the phrase, ‘third party assistance’.

While one might patently want to forbid possibly violent, mentally ill persons from possessing a weapon, there are all manner of stipulations contained within the rule for which you would not want to impair someone’s rights, especially given someone who might be in even greater need of defense because of impairment or disease. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley said this week:

“This regulation unfairly stigmatizes people with disabilities. If the regulation is not repealed, it will allow the agency to very unfairly deprive Social Security recipients of their Second Amendment rights…This is essentially a national gun ban list.”

It wasn’t just Republicans that joined in the fight…

Back in 2015, Sen. Joe Manchin was one who voted to overturn the Obama mandate, expressing in a statement that he was against an SSA rule on gun ownership because it “is a blatant infringement on the Second Amendment rights of millions of Americans.”

Three other senators — North Dakota’s Heidi Heitkamp, Indiana’s Joe Donnelly and Montana’s Jon Tester — and Maine Sen. Angus King, made up the rest of the Democrats that voted with the Republicans in favor of striking down this bogus rule.

This is a right that protects the other rights. It CANNOT be taken by a government that never granted it in the first place.

Not to distract from this fine article but we also saw Congress starting to move on vaping, a cause dear to Duncan Hunter, an avid vaper himself and prominent early Trump backer. He has even vaped inside the capitol, much to the horror of Dems. This looks to be a bipartisan bill.

Vaping.com: Draft law to save vaping gathers steam in Congress

A new bill has been introduced in Congress which, if passed, will prevent the FDA from banning 99.9% vapor products next year.

Whoa! This is huge! This may affect 12 or 13 people.

Way to go, Congress! After this major victory, feel free to relax and leave the other 20,000 gun laws on the books.

Oh, while you're at it, don't say anything about the lack of enforcement of these laws -- especially gun possession by felons. We're content with simply having the laws on the books. It shows the people you're "doing something".

A perfectly normal link to a vaping site. Most of the reporting on this bill is on vaping sites.

We'll see if the GOP is smart enough to block the anti-vaping Dems.

I've already had to condense several of the CRA stories into a single thread. Trump and even Congress are so busy it's hard to give everything its own thread. The entire sidebar would be full.

A big part of Trump's win was on appealing to deregulation on a massive scale. These federal agencies have arrogated to themselves the power of writing law via regulation, then using their packs of lawyers to financially ruin anyone who tries to resist them. This is happening across all the federal agencies. IRS, EPA, FDA, you name it. They're all neck-deep in "laws" that they wrote for themselves. It's long overdue for Congress to snap the leash on these assholes.

Mass firings and breaking the federal employee unions would be even better. The outline of Trump's initial budget is for sharp shrinkage of discretionary funding. And that almost has to mean some mass firings or early retirements of federal employees.

The GOP really does have plenty to keep them busy if they're willing to do the work. Congress has been very lazy about oversight ever since the Xlinton era. It was weaker after Dumbya was elected and oversight hearings (with real consequences) virtually disappeared after 9/11 and never returned during the 0bama years. Congress needs to do its job, writes its own laws, do extensive oversight. Even if that means the Senate has to do more than show up three afternoons a week. The Senate is a disgrace and has been for a long time.

It is now. The first three times I went there I got an ad that I couldn't exit.

I read somewhere that the EPA, formed in 1970, could have been abolished in 1980 since it's work (excluding enforcement) was done. If you think about it, it makes sense.

I welcome any news that Congress is going to finally shrink government and rein in these Bureaucrats Gone Wild.
