            By Mr. DUNCAN:
        H.R. 4312.
        Congress has the power to enact this legislation pursuant 
     to the following:
       With this legislation, Congress is defending the 2nd 
     Amendment prerogative to keep and bear arms. This legislation 
     also protects those who wish to exercise their right to keep 
     and bear arms with the possession of non-NFA items equipped 
     with pistol stabilizing braces from undue regulatory burden 
     from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF)'s 
     interpretation of the National Firearms Act (NFA) within the 
     proposed rule entitled ``Factoling Criteria for Firearms With 
     Attached `Stabilizing Braces' ''. Also, Article I, Section 8, 
     Clause 1 gives Congress the right to lay and collect taxes.
