Ted Cruz is leading the way to squash them all, with words of reason.
Once again, they will be put back in the wish list folder, of emotional based law.
So, surprised the Dumbocrat Super Majority didn't do this in 2009, when they had the chance to sign it to see what was in it.
All will fail then Republicans will say you wanted us to bring them up for a vote we did they will blame the other side for not voting for them. It will be republicans that will not vote any gun bill watch.
I wrote a scathing e mail to my (R) Senator for his involvement in it. It got us a telephone poll where we said we'd be voting third party this election. I wouldn't give his( D) opponent a vote, either. I hope I scared him into growing a spine, but I doubt it. I call our senators the blind pigs, LOL. Once in a while they find an acorn, but never both together.

My Senator is leading the fight against all 4 and any further attempts.
We have been e-mailing about the repeal of the 1934 Firearms act, under constitutional grounds it violates the 2nd amendment.
Vote is going on now, you can watch it on c-span2.
these have both been defeated.

An amendment by Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, would make it more difficult to add mentally ill people to the background check database, giving people suspected of serious mental illness a process to challenge that determination.
An amendment by Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., that would close the "gun show loophole" by requiring every gun purchaser to undergo a background check, and to expand the background check database.
Only thing left is the competing bills from the Republicans and Democrats, the Cornyn, amendment addressees concerns about stripping someone of their Constitutional rights and has the endorsement of the NRA.
Even if passed I don't see how the Feinstein bill passes the Constitutional sniff test.

► An amendment by Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., would allow the attorney general to deny a gun sale to anyone if she has a "reasonable belief" — a lesser standard than "probable cause" — that the buyer was likely to engage in terrorism. The proposal is popularly known as the "no-fly, no-buy" amendment, but wouldn't just apply to people on the "no fly" terrorist watch list.
► An Republican alternative by Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, which would require that law enforcement be alerted when anyone on the terror watch list attempts to buy a weapon from a licensed dealer. If the buyer has been investigated for terrorism within the past five years, the attorney general could block a sale for up to three days while a court reviews the sale.
The majority of Americans, including gun owners, want tighter gun control laws. Why can't the politicians listen to the people? There will never be improved gun control laws until something like 30,000 a year are killed by guns--oh wait, I guess that's not enough.
