    Mr. Larosiere is an exceptionally well informed individual in both contemporary and past history of this bureau, as well as federal law that it enforces. With nothing but the best in mind for his countrymen he would be an outstanding addition to the DOJ in the BATFE.

    Matt is arguably one of the most informed firearms lawyers in the country, and has extensive knowledge of firearms law and history. He believes deeply in our constitution rights and the ideas that founded our nation, and I believe he has the best interests of the American people at heart. I hope that he will be a part of the ATF where he can protect our rights from government overreach and stop the persecution of law abiding American citizens.

    This man is beyond qualified, and values the Second Amendment. He knows the business and the law. He is a good choice.

    Matthew Larosiere is an open book, and I find his commentaries on firearms law and regulations very cogent and illuminating. Firearms are the primary area where BATFE impacts everyday Americans, often making them paper criminals; Matthew is exceedingly well versed on these issues and uniquely suited to lead BATFE in carrying out its limited authorities without criminalizing peaceful people.
    I can’t think of anyone more suitable as director of BATFE.

    Mr. Larosiere is a thoughtful and passionate scholar of law that will fight to cut back on government overreach and tyrannical infringements on citizens’ rights. Please help him get a position in the BATFE.

    I support Matthew Larosiere’s recommendation.

    Aside from the typical qualifiers one may look toward (e.g., his intelligence, advocacy, political understanding, and so on), Matthew has advocated from a place of profound moral conviction to uphold the Constitution and the rights of Americans, regardless of their identities. He has the distinct ability to reach across political and identitarian divisions to bring awareness and acceptance to this crucial vanguard of American exceptionalism, values, and security.

    As a man who has been to Congress during the worst of times, he has demonstrated an ability to advocate, even under aggressive fire from detractors, showing that he can weather the worst storms under pressure.

    All of his work happens while he fights legal battles against the current regime’s outlandish and unconstitutional overreaches to imprison peaceable people who, for example, unwittingly aggrieved the ATF’s ever-changing, ill-defined rules with a drawing on metal.

    He does these things not for money or fame but to do what’s right. He is the man the ATF sorely requires to defang the unjust and unholy weapon of the current state against innocent people.

    This is an extremely well informed and passionate man who is a well respected professional among his peers. He goes above and beyond in seeking out injustice from our own government as well as his fellows in the domain of law.

    To the Trump Administration and Nomination Committee,

    I am writing to offer my strongest endorsement of Matthew Larosiere for consideration within your administration. Matthew’s extensive legal expertise, particularly in Second Amendment rights and firearms policy, positions him as a highly valuable asset for any team dedicated to protecting constitutional freedoms and educating the public on matters of personal liberty.

    Matthew’s work as the Director of Legal Policy at the Firearms Policy Coalition reflects his dedication to legal advocacy and his commitment to the preservation of individual rights. His insightful analysis and contributions to public discourse have made him a leading figure in firearms law. Through his YouTube channel, “Fudd Busters,” Matthew debunks myths surrounding gun laws, educates on constitutional principles, and explains complex legal issues in a clear, accessible manner, fostering a more informed public that can engage thoughtfully with these topics.

    In addition to his online presence, Matthew has contributed to the legal and academic community through published articles, legal briefs, and policy discussions in respected outlets like The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, and National Review. His work demonstrates a deep understanding of the legal and historical context of firearms law and his unwavering commitment to upholding constitutional principles.

    Matthew’s academic achievements, including a cum laude Juris Doctor and Master of Laws in Taxation from the University of Alabama, underscore his intellectual rigor and legal acumen. Beyond his education, his active participation in events such as the 2A Rally for Your Rights in Washington, D.C., showcases his dedication to advocacy and civic engagement.

    With his unique blend of policy expertise, public communication skills, and commitment to individual rights, I am confident that Matthew Larosiere would bring invaluable insights and leadership to the Trump administration. I am proud to support him for any role that would allow him to continue his advocacy and contribute meaningfully to policy-making in service of the American people.

    Thank you for considering this recommendation.

    Sincerely,

    Nicolai Alatzas

    I wholeheartedly endorse Matthew Larosiere for any leadership position within the BATFE. With his unparalleled expertise in firearms law and policy, combined with hands-on experience as an attorney, firearms designer, dealer, and manufacturer, Matthew is uniquely qualified to lead the ATF into a new era of constitutional fidelity and transparency.

    Matthew is a staunch advocate for individual rights and has consistently fought against government overreach throughout his career. As a firearms attorney, he has defended clients whose constitutional rights were violated, and his principled stand against government misconduct demonstrates his unwavering commitment to integrity and accountability.

    Please God let this happen. There is nobody else with this level of autistic firearm knowledge packed into such a professional and poised individual.

    Also, this page is not showing up when searching for BATFE from the main page - fix that.

    Mr. Larosiere is one of the people if there ever was one. While I would like him to be involved in BATFE to some extent due to his extensive knowledge and experience; I think any position he occupies he would treat with the upmost regard and diligence.

    I would also like to endorse Mr Larosiere for the position of Directer of the ATF. The man is an accomplished lawyer and engineer in the field of firearms and holds the enumerated rights in the constitution close to his heart. I fully believe he will bring about a great period of righteous justice for the firearm community as he steers the ATF into the direction they always should have held, protecting the rights of the people.

    Matt has displayed exceptional knowledge of both constitution law and how the founding fathers viewed firearms under the second amendment. And as such he would be a great fit in an agency that is dedicated to understanding the constitutionality surrounding firearms in the U.S. He is truly one of the greatest minds we have today when it comes to understanding the second amendment.

    I believe Matt would be a great pick due to his knowledge of gun laws!
