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.

Just the Toomeey-Manchin amendment was defeated. There are many other proposals up for consideration.

I don’t need to turn on C-Span to know my two senators, Murray and Cantwell, were “YES” votes.
I need to move.

Expect this one by Grassley/Cruz to fail, too, on party lines.

Both of mine (one being Harry Reid) voted 'No'.
Of course, the Reid vote is for reasons noted above, but still 'No'.
