The ATF hasn't had a confirmed director in six years (since 2015). It's had only one (2013-15) since Congress made the position Senate-approved in 2006, because of opposition from the National Rifle Association and “other gun rights groups.”

It's unclear who Chris was directly quoting at the end of his tweet. I don't see any news reports or earlier tweets in the thread discussing "other gun rights groups".
I'm being facetious of course: Chris put in quotes because he believes when you put a human right in quotes, it negates the human right. (As an aside, decades ago another Chris already demolished the notion that the National Rifle Association was a "gun rights group" in the first place).
Still, Chris' little style guide looked fun, so I thought I'd try it out myself.
- EGALE and other "sodomy rights groups"
- NAACP and other "racial rights groups"
- Planned Parenthood and other "abortion rights groups"
Yep, it's enjoyable. Hey, it's always fun to learn a new fun thing to do.
