Saying the ATF “dangerously mismanaged” a program aimed at gunning guns off the street, Rep. Darrell Issa is subpoenaing the agency for more information.
Issa chairs the House Oversight and Government reform Committee, which is investigating the ATF’s blundered storefront operations.
Issa criticized the ATF for showing a “complete lack of cooperation.”
“I have no choice today but to issue the enclosed subpoena,” he wrote to ATF Director B. Todd Jones. “… The time for hollow promises is over.”

There was a lot of talk about how the ATF could not do its job because it had no permanent director. Now, Todd Jones fills that position. Has the organization changed and put on the right track? Apparently not. I think the only way to wake up this group is de-funding, their results are not worth the cost and now we see another infringement on 80% complete lowers in CA. The organization needs to be totally re-organized or done away with.
