News reports often confuse “expanded background checks” (more of them, like at gun shows) with “universal background checks” (on every sale). They aren’t the same thing. It might be that the White House opposes one and not the other (though 90% of voters want universal checks). — PolitiTweet.org

I spoke with the White House today. They have not walked away from improving background checks. I am skeptical we can reach consensus but I’m willing to stay at the table over next few weeks. Maybe I’m a fool for trying but stakes are too high. — PolitiTweet.org

HR 8 (and my bill in the Senate) is a universal background checks bill. And to be clear, if Trump got behind it, it would get 60 votes in the Senate. That is still the easiest and best path. — PolitiTweet.org
