Congress and the AMMO Act

[JohnyMac]

I wonder how far this act will go?

Republicans in the Senate and House are expected to introduce a joint bill Friday that would limit the amount of ammunition that federal agencies are allowed to buy and stockpile over the next six months, the Washington Free Beacon reports.

The bill, titled the Ammunition Management for More Accountability or ?AMMO? Act, is being proposed after several lawmakers have voiced concerns about some federal agencies, like the Department of Homeland Security, seemingly stockpiling large quantities of ammo.

Hey, at least we know it won't be 1,500 pages and they'll give the democrats more than 15 minutes to read it. I think it's an awesome idea. The media is obviously pursuing a campaign of lies on the matter. I was reading up on the quantities used by DHS each year. It's staggering. To such an extent that I think they're out right lying and the "spent" rounds have been stockpiled. Kind of like what Russia did after '91 with their nukes.
