Senate Democrats will offer a pair of gun-related amendments to a budget bill on Thursday, seeking to put Republicans on record on the charged issue in the aftermath of Wednesday's mass shooting in California.
At a special caucus meeting on Thursday morning, Democratic senators agreed to offer Legislation that would make it harder for people on the terrorism watch list to buy guns, and a re-vote on universal background checks that failed in 2013, senators and aides said. The votes could become major campaign fodder in next year's Senate races.
A third amendment proposed by Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) that would restrict gun ownership for people convicted of intimidation at abortion clinics will not be offered, sources said. Democrats only want to a narrow list of amendments and that measure is viewed as overlapping with another amendment that would seek to strip out a provision defunding Planned Parenthood.

Keep in mind that they've already admitted to wanting to CONFISCATE Guns:

Sic semper tyrannis
This didn’t work for Al Gore in 2000—cost him his home state, enabling GWB to win (after the Florida appeal, of course).
The more terrorism there is, the less popular gun grabbing will be.
Would it be asking too much for the GOP to counter with Jihad amendments such as requiring civil servants to swear before Allah that they will not wage Jihad and will not murder people who are not Moslems.
Democrats are just making it easier and easier for us to win in 2016
Why don’t they just make murdering people illegal?
I wish the Democrat party good luck in their quest....lol
the leftists just dont seem to get that. they are such ideologues that they refuse to acknowledge the truth.
they make excuses for the drubbings they take at the ballot box, every time they advance their gun-grabbing nonsense, and other such tyrannical ambitions.
hell, let them advance the agenda...has not worked for them, yet.
All right, bring up the contact lists, we need to head this off. Fan out to the other Conservative web sites and spread the word, we need to mobilize now!
You beat me to it, but my wording was, "Keep it up dems, the more you push for gun control, the more votes Trump gets. C'mon, push it, be in the news daily about gun control. Let's see those Bills! C'mon faster, to the Networks, c'mon more coverage, more interviews, more newspaper articles. Forward!"

There are more of "us ("clinging to our God and guns") than there are of you (and your Islamic terrorist 'friends' in the U. S.) and we know how both work!
They do this because they are secure in the certainty that the leadership on our side will offer no counter-argument, no pushback, no defense of American values, no defense of American security, nothing. Not a peep. Not a word will come from Mitch McConnell or Paul Ryan against these attempts to play politics with our fundamental freedoms.
It doesn’t matter what more gun laws are passed; the guns are already out there.
they refuse to acknowledge the truth.
Don’t think for a second they don’t know the truth or the facts, get over it, they DO!. They are just plain EVIL and you must accept that if you wish to survive.
D: Please, Dear God, let me take him down successfully!
..then there is that.
most americans aint gonna voluntarily give them up in some mandatory “buy-back” leftist nonsense scheme, or allow them to be taken in a forceful “confiscation” situation.
this is a lose-lose for the left, only they have not figured that out.
so....keep pushin that narrative, dims..
Bring it, punks.
I want EVERYONE to realize that these murders of innocent people HAPPENED IN PLACES WHERE GUNS WERE FORBIDDEN.
And the Republicans, if they have any BALLS, will point that out.
