Thanks for the update.
Are there two left or were they amendments ?

There are two left; the voting is on C-span as I type.

[Red in Blue PA]

Final 44 Yes/ 56 No

[hoosiermama]

Always forget about CSpan. Thanks

[hoosiermama]

3rd amendment !

[San F]

Why all this nonsense about gun control? The Orlando attack was caused by RADICAL ISLAMIC TERRORISM. How about terrorist control?

[Red in Blue PA]

Never remember any dem mentioning boxcutter control after 9/11

After this initial loss they’ll know what the people will let them get away with and which Congresspeople they’ll have to blackmail.

Pissing into a gale.. The ‘Rat way ...

This is such BS! There are background checks at Gun Shows! The Republicans do not have a clue; change the friggin name of the bill to “Background Checks on Private Sales”! There is no Gun Show loop hole! Private sales at a gun show are no different than a private gun sale at a garage sale! Why don't we name it “Background Checks on Gun Sales at Garage Sales”?

[Red in Blue PA]

Not a single one of these bills would have stopped the Orlando massacre.

[Red in Blue PA]

If private background checks were in place during the founding of this nation, the Founding Fathers would have been executed by the British with that information.

Amendment 72 hour delay for someone on no fly list
Yay 50
Nay 47

60 votes needed

Having sold guns at a gun show, yes with an FFL, I can tell you that there are the same background checks as if you walked into a gun store to buy a gun...that law already is on the books....

[Kickass Conservative]

I thought there were already Background Checks at Gun Shows?

I guess saying Gun Show Loophole will fool more People than saying Private Transaction.

thank Congess for that, but it sure is dangerous when our inalienable, God-given rights are upheld by a mere 9 vote margin

the vote means there are 40+ people in there that DO NOT BELONG THERE! Who are working against our very republic’s constitution.... and our Bill of Rights.

which they are sworn to uphold and defend against enemies foreign and domestic, they’ve broken their oaths of office....

THEY are our domestic enemies....

[eyedigress]

You got that right. The only thing this bs does is prevent junior from getting his first gun on his 12th birthday.

[faithhopecharity]

control of Moslems, yes
but better would be
deportation back to their own Krapistans (they have 56 countries they’ve already taken over THIS VERY WAY... that they can go live in, they are NOT refugees they are Islamic invaders...)

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

To #11. You make to much sense for most Republicans and all Democrats.

Too much of America is still “Stuck on Stupid”.
