Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) said the media had the full text of the latest gun control bill before the senate had a chance to review it.
Lee said the rollout of the bill was the “Senate operating at its worst,” noting that it prevented others from adding amendments. The U.S. Senate ultimately voted 64 to 34 in favor of the bill. Fourteen Republican senators voted with the Democrats to pass the bill.
According to Lee, Republicans were basically asked to take a blind vote on the bill without actually reading it.
"There were a group of senators, ten Republicans and ten Democrats, who got together and wrote this behind closed doors. I hope they read it. But I don’t think anyone else had the chance to. In fact, by yesterday afternoon, mid-afternoon, a number of news media outlets were reporting that they had the bill text. Senators still didn’t."
"We received the bill text, just moments before we were expected to vote on it. It ended up getting an overwhelming vote, because basically all of Democrats and ten or 15 Republicans voted for it. This is stunning to me. This is not how the Senate is supposed to operate."
The National Rifle Association (NRA) has slammed the bill as an attack on gun rights.

Ladies and Gentlemen, we present the self-proclaimed World's Greatest Deliberative Body!
Senator Mike has an IQ of 347, but unfortunately he’s deep on the Spectrum.
Lee voted against the bill and has been an outspoken critic of the bill. Do you think he should have voted for it? What am I missing??
Cornyn, Graham, McConnell are their 11 RINO pals.
Benedict Arnold is their mentor.
No one said thy had to know how to read, just how to vote.
NO surprise here, before The USA can become Venezuela 3 very important things must happen, the libs must get control of the Newsmedia, which they have, they must get control of the vote, which they have, now they must get the guns away from the people. If that happens, its over.
Post of the Day!
Republican voters can hold them accountable. We’ll see.
In light of today’s ruling, shouldn’t the bill be pulled until it can be determined if it is Constitutional or not?
(Rhetorical question since Congress does not care if a law is Constitutional or not)
Well Mike, you pussy, do something about your Republican colleagues that are in on the gun grab. Spill the beans. You know what’s going on. Be the whistle blower. Rat them out you eff’n rat. Or are you too busy bending over for Mitt Romney?
Don’t worry. Mike has the best H1B Doctors available.
What is all the animosity toward Mike Lee?
Congress needs a complete HOUSE-cleaning and SENATE-cleaning...need to get rid of the entire bunch of thieves. And start from scratch without all of their BS protocols.
I’m sure someone will sue no matter what the Gun Control Bills are and do
Go lookup Mike Lee & Senate Bill S.386.
Can’t all of the Republican Senators agains the bill just leave town to prevent quorum ?
Cornyn the other lame-duck traitors will get their payday after they leave office, and nobody will notice or care.
