Sen. John Cornyn and other Republicans have agreed to a bipartisan framework on gun-related legislation. Cornyn insists the deal respects the 2nd amendment...
The 10 Republicans in the group enjoy some political insulation from angry voters given that four of them are leaving Congress at the end of this year, and five — including Cornyn — aren’t on the ballot again until 2026.
He noted that the agreement-in-principle is only a start and the negotiators have much work ahead filling in the details. The deal includes money for mental health resources and school safety measures but the trickiest parts will be its gun-related provisions. Andi Turner, legislative director for the Texas State Rifle Association, also criticized the idea of money for more state-based red flag laws. She said she’d oppose any effort by Texas lawmakers to adopt such laws.
The deal also includes enhanced background checks for those under 21, which GOA characterized as: “Wait periods and extensive review for those under 21 seeking to exercise their Second Amendment rights.” The group said “We will not allow the government to make those who can vote and fight our wars second class citizens.”
