Fourteen Senate Republicans bucked the National Rifle Association and other Second Amendment advocates on Tuesday to advance bipartisan gun control and school safety legislation.

In a 64-34 vote, the Senate voted to begin debate on an ambitious rewrite of the nation’s firearm laws. Although only a simple majority was needed to take the measure up, 14 Republicans led by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell voted in favor.

So I guess if they are rewarded with the majority, it will only get less representative of their constituents.

But, isn’t it NRA-supported politicians who are on this list?

Stop voting for these people. It’s easier to get rid of an elected D than a RINO. Vote them all out!

Traitors, and the same ones likely to agree with Cornyn’s next target, AMNESTY; and third, Democrat win in November.

AGAIN, they got billions from Covid and now this. They are going to hire MORE union dues payors and there will be NO accountability to the desired outcome, identifying school shooters or problem kids.

Yes, these are NRA-supported politicians and the NRA is already out raising money off of their actions. It is a win-win for them all. As an NRA life member, I’m disgusted with their racket.

They should know WE ARE THE NRA! Even if we aren’t paying dues, we support the 2nd Amendment. The S will eventually hit the fan. We will remember.

Funny how few fully follow the plain and plainly concise phrase, "...shall not be infringed."

It's not rocket surgery, you know. And yet, too many of our elected Reps and Senators seem entirely and utterly bent on blowing it.

I haven't read the bill yet, but I am willing to bet that it is packed with spending for all kinds of things.

At this point in our economic times, there should be zero bills passed if they don't have spending cuts.

Yes, there’s another thread on that very subject.

Milt-Pierre got something like $13M from the NRA.
