Another Fast and Furious? Cornyn demands information on ATF operation in Texas. :: 08/16/2011
Sen. John Cornyn took a stand against the gun walking that has been reported in Texas. Gun walking is a practice similar to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives' "Fast and Furious" operation, which is now undergoing intense scrutiny in a congressional investigation.
Under the program, ATF agents did not intercept firearms that were suspected of going to drug cartels, but instead attempted to follow the firearms to lead them to gangs' higher-ups. Problems arose when those firearms were later used in violent crimes and killings.
Cornyn today sent a letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee and U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder requesting information about any gun walking operations in Texas.
