Government Speak: We're not getting 1.6 billion rounds, only "upto" 1.6 billion rounds... DHS Denies Massive Ammunition PurchaseBy Elizabeth Flock, March 22, 2013 DHS told Whispers it regularly fills all of its goods and services requirements at one time because it's cheaper for the agency, and that the 1.6 billion number was misleading because the language of DHS's purchase said it would need "up to" a certain amount. One solicitation by the agency--for training centers and law enforcement personnel--was for ""up to" 750 million rounds of training ammunition over the next five years, DHS spokesman Peter Boogaard told Whispers. www.usnews.com/news/blogs/washington-whispers/2013/03/22/dhs-denies-massive-ammunition-purchase

What are the reactions or thoughts of everyone's Rep's on the subject?
Rep. Candice Millers (R MI) office is playing ostrich, what ammo? Who? Oh, it's for training!

for training centers
Hollow points? I don't think so unless by buying all of one kind they could get them cheaper than regular ball.
