We cannot allow a federal agency tasked with enforcing gun laws to lack leadership — especially at a time when our nation’s gun violence epidemic rages.

Steve Dettelbach's solid experience is why you must tell your Senators to confirm Steve Dettelbach as the Director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). As a veteran prosecutor at the DOJ, he successfully led a major law enforcement office where he worked closely with the ATF as well as other federal, state and local law enforcement agencies for decades to fight violent crime, domestic violent extremism, and international gang and violent criminal enterprises. Dettelbach has the leadership skills, experience and vast knowledge to ensure the laws already on the books are implemented and enforced.
