The US Senate approved a bipartisan gun control bill Thursday night, the most comprehensive piece of gun reform legislation passed by federal lawmakers in nearly three decades.
The $13 billion measure was approved 65-33 and received enough Republican support to avoid a filibuster, a scenario that was unthinkable before the recent elementary school shooting in Uvalde, Texas and the Buffalo grocery store rampage moved 15 GOP Senators to compromise on a bill.
The article goes on to state the following:
The measure toughens background checks for gun buyers under 21 and provides financial incentives for states to enact red flag laws that would keep weapons out of the hands of criminals and the mentally ill.
Republicans in the House are expected to strongly oppose the bill.
First thing tomorrow morning, Rules Committee w/ meet then immediately a floor vote, said @SpeakerPelosi. "And we will send the bill to President Biden for his signature, with gratitude for his leadership.”#GunControl

President Joe Biden, however, has expressed support for the legislation.
“Our kids in schools and our communities will be safer because of this legislation. I call on Congress to finish the job and get this bill to my desk,” Biden said.
Meanwhile former President Donald Trump spoke out against the bill, zeroing in on Republicans who were working on the bill, which was spearheaded by Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) and Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas).
Taking to his Truth Social account, Trump wrote on Wednesday:
The deal on “Gun Control” currently being structured and pushed in the Senate by the Radical Left Democrats, with the help of Mitch McConnell, RINO Senator John Cornyn of Texas, and others, will go down in history as the first step in the movement to TAKE YOUR GUNS AWAY. Republicans, be careful what you wish for!!!
He followed up Thursday writing:
Mitch McConnell’s push for Republican Senators to vote for Gun Control will be the final straw. Just like he gave away the Debt Ceiling and got NOTHING in return, or handed the Dems a great sound bite and victory with the Infrastructure Bill, which is actually all about the Green New Deal, he is now forcing approval of the FIRST STEP IN TAKING AWAY YOUR GUNS! Republican Senators SHOULD NOT VOTE FOR THIS CAREER ENDING BILL!!!
NEWS ALERT: Trump rips into McConnell and Cornyn over pending gun legislation
Enhanced funding for school security & mental health treatment is a good thing — but it’s being combined with giving the left a foothold to limit the 2nd Amendment. I voted against the gun control bill because Americans' constitutional right to keep & bear arms is not negotiable.

Law enforcement will suffer immensely, because no gun law abiding citizen will allow their guns to be confiscated!
#FuckJoeBiden and this wretched administration.
Why, oh, why don’t we hear any Republicans discussing that the very strict gun laws in Ca., NY, Illinois, etc have NOT reduced crime?!
Criminals ignore laws, and all this bill will do is erode the 2A.
This bill will do nothing good for Patriotic Americans; it will embolden criminals even more.
I hope each and every senator who voted in favor of this bill is primaried out in the next cycle. They’re not worthy of the office they hold.
Come and take it! Lets see if u have the balls you scumbag uniparty fucks !!!
I believe we have established that strict gun laws don’t work because criminals ARE criminals because they don’t adhere to laws.
Fucking idiots… Already the Dems are crediting Biden for his leadership…
All 15 Republicans should be unemployed. They have betrayed the citizens they represent…or don’t represent.
Read flag laws give any one who doesn’t like you personally the right to say you are threatening them or someone and aloe then to take your guns no questions asked. No due process they just take them.
Why can’t we secure our schools?
The problem is with mentally ill people and criminals spend money on these problems and you might get somewhere
This will be a disgrace to Our Country,especially the 15 Rhinos that turned against us and went Jacka****,w/them.
Who paid them off and how much money did they get?
This is to President Trump,why won’t you ever name that Rhino,Lindsey Graham?I’m very curious about that!!
The states should figure it. The Gov’t has their hands in just too much.
What a bunch of Traitors! I agree they were all paid off! This is the first step to taking your guns away so they can take over with the NewWorld Order! God Help us NOW!
Everyone of these Rinos have to GO! Did all our taxpayer money that footed this sham of a Bill harden the schools? Did they eliminate “Gun Free Zones”? Did they give criminals Card Blanch? Yes they did! There is no protection for our “Soft Targets”! 🤬#FJB
I wonder if there will be lawsuits because of this legislation. Will the USSC be able to rule against this? The GOP senators who voted for this are sellouts. More details are coming out about Uvalde. They are shocking.
