Comment on FR Doc # 2026-09182

I am writing to express my strong opposition to the proposed changes to ATF Form 4473, specifically the requirement for applicants to list their "biological sex at birth." This proposed rule represents a significant and unconstitutional infringement on the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens. The right to keep and bear arms is a fundamental right guaranteed to all American citizens. No law-abiding citizen should be forced to disclose sensitive, private medical or personal history. This requirement is irrelevant for the eligibility to own a firearm and to complete a background check. I urge the ATF to withdraw this proposal and maintain the current standard, which allows for identification that matches the applicant’s valid, government-issued ID.
