I posted this on the last thread about the appropriatations bill, but the reason Sen. Moran (KS) voted for it is (presumably) because according to Gun Owners of America he added an amendment which will ban funding for any attempt to enforce the UN Arms Trade Treaty in the US.

Per Gun Owners of America:

For a year now, we have told you that we easily have the 34 votes necessary to defeat ratification of the UN Arms Trade Treaty. That treaty would set the stage for far-ranging gun and magazine bans, gun registration, and gun microstamping requirements.

We have told you that the next task would be to pass an appropriations bill amendment which would defund any Obama effort to implement the ATT by executive fiat. And we have drafted such an amendment and made it available to Congress.

That amendment to defund the UN ATT is about to happen.

Senator Jerry Moran (R-KS) has announced that he has amended the must-pass omnibus appropriations bill to ban funding for the implementation of the ATT.

That big appropriations bill has pluses and minuses, and it probably is not the bill we would have drafted. But the win on the Arms Trade Treaty is huge.

“We have told you that the next task would be to pass an appropriations bill amendment which would defund any Obama effort to implement the ATT by executive fiat.”

Does anyone else see the fatal flaw with this line of thinking? “Obama is lawless so we’re going to make a law to stop him.” High five!!
