WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, Firearms Policy Coalition issued the following statement in response to reports that the Senate Parliamentarian has advised that key pro-liberty provisions in the Republican reconciliation package would be subject to a 60-vote threshold under the Byrd Rule, essentially striking them from the Senate’s version of the “One Big Beautiful Bill” unless the Senate overrules her:
It is utterly disgraceful and unacceptable that the Senate is allowing an unelected bureaucrat to stand between the American people and their constitutionally protected rights. The Senate Parliamentarian’s advice—which has no force of law—is being wielded as a political weapon to block long-overdue reforms around constitutionally protected arms.
The Parliamentarian’s opinions are non-binding and completely irrelevant to the question of whether Congress should advance these legislative reforms, eliminating some unconstitutional taxes and related regulations.
Senators take an oath to uphold the Constitution, not to submit to the procedural gatekeeping of a Senate employee with a red pen and a power trip. Our rights should never be subject to the whims of anyone, let alone an unelected staffer behind closed doors.
We call on all Senators to reject the Parliamentarian’s advice, honor their oath, and move forward with legislation to remove suppressors, short-barreled firearms, and other weapons from the scope of the National Firearms Act and eliminate those related taxes. The Constitution is not a mere suggestion—it is the “supreme Law of the Land.” The Senate should start acting like it. Read more
