Great Falls, MT – Congressman Matt Rosendale (MT-02) sent a letter to ATF Director Steven Dettelbach and IRS Commissioner Daniel Werfel demanding answers on why the ATF and IRS raided Highwood Creek Outfitters in Great Falls, Montana, with guns drawn.
“The raid that took place at Highwood Creek Outfitters is outrageous,” said Rep. Rosendale. “Under Director Dettelbach’s leadership of the ATF, a pattern of intimidation and harassment against hardworking Americans has emerged – Montanans will not tolerate these political witch hunts. I remind both Director Dettelbach and Commissioner Werfel that Congress has the power of the purse, and I will ensure that funding for these agencies is not weaponized against the American people."
