Republicans Spar with Democrats Over Gun Control
In the wake of recent mass shootings… Senate Democrats force votes on some gun control proposals.
FOX News’ Jared Halpern has more on Capitol Hill:
As part of a Republican package to repeal swaths of the Affordable Care Act, Democrats tried to attach an amendment that would bar anyone on a terror watch list from purchasing firearms…
(Reid) “It would deprive people of their due process rights under the constitution.”
(Cornyn) “Mr. President, there is nothing, nothing, unconstitutional about keeping a terrorists from buying a gun.”
Texas Republican John Cornyn sparring with Democratic Leader Harry Reid, another proposal that would have expanded background checks on some gun sales also failed.
