Arkansas Legislators Demand ATF Raid Answers

Thirty Arkansas legislators—Republican and Democrat—sent a formal letter to President Trump and the DOJ demanding an independent investigation into the March 2024 ATF raid that killed Little Rock airport director Bryan Malinowski. Lawmakers cited conflicting narratives, body camera concerns, and questions about whether the raid's timing was tied to a pending ATF rule redefinition. Malinowski's widow has an active federal wrongful death suit against the agency.
