The House of Representatives on Friday passed the most sweeping gun control bill in nearly 30 years in a 234 -193 vote as Congress responds to gun violence across the nation.
The legislation garnered some GOP support with 14 House Republicans crossing party lines to vote in favor of the measure, including Reps. Liz Cheney of Wyoming, Adam Kinzinger of Illinois, Tom Rice of South Carolina, John Katko of New York, Chris Jacobs of New York, Maria Salazar of Florida, Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania, Peter Meijer of Michigan, Fred Upton of Michigan, Anthony Gonzalez of Ohio, Steve Chabot of Ohio, Mike Turner of Ohio, David Joyce of Ohio and Tony Gonzales of Texas.
The bill, which will now head to the president’s desk, passed the Senate with a 65-33 vote late Thursday night.
Ten Senate Republicans and 10 Senate Democrats began negotiations on the legislation after two mass shootings in Buffalo, New York and Uvalde, Texas left dozens dead last month within a week of each other.

When are they going to control the criminals? I will NOT comply!
My neighbor gave himself a vasectomy in support of world birth control.
The analogy in the pictures is exactly what the political ruling class has in mind!!!!! I WILL NOT COMPLY!!!!!!!!!
Can anyone tell me why the left always wants to but limits on law abiding people and yet [despite of all their talk] allows criminals to go free. I just don't understand it.
Because an unarmed public is easy to control.
I'm armed, and I'm going to stay that way.
This will not stop the killing of people, they will find other ways to do it. Like with the World Trade Center, Oaklahoma City Bombing, Boston Marathon bombing, Uni bomber, so on and so forth. We all know they will find another way. And if the democrats want to talk about kids being murdered , then they should look at WW2 with the atom bombs. Also all of the babies being murdered by plan parenthood.
The Democrats 100% back planed Parenthood.
Democrats don’t care about children. They’ve been using that BULLSHIT for 100 years.
Democrats care about POWER. That’s ALL they care about.
So will the Democrats stop murdering people now ?
