Senate Now Voting on Amendments to Gun Legislation

The Senate on Wednesday is debating and will vote on several amendments to S649, the gun legislation bill which Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) introduced last week. One of the first amendments debated and voted on is the amendment by Senators Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Pat Toomey (R-PA) which deals with background checks when purchasing a firearm.

Obama needs this to go to the House so they can get House Reps to vote on it and identify those against it for the 2014 midterms.
