After Biden and Democrats weaponized it politically, Rick Scott's 11-point plan has become a 12-point plan, with a new section titled "CUTTING TAXES" that opens with this note in bold font: https://t.co/AddULpyFmH — PolitiTweet.org

As the @January6thCmte begins public hearings today, the Senate group working on anti-coup election reforms appears surprisingly close to agreement. Their focus is safeguards for counting votes and certifying elections so that rightful winners take power. https://t.co/v8RTN7GlAK — PolitiTweet.org

1/6 hearings a jolt? "I hope the American people will tune in to these hearings and realize just how close we came to overturning a democratic election... I hope that will break new energy behind some of the election reform efforts," says @ChrisVanHollen. https://t.co/v8RTN7GlAK — PolitiTweet.org

Jan. 6 Committee aide: "We will be revealing new details showing that the violence on Jan. 6 was the result of a coordinated, multistep effort to overturn the results of the 2020 election and to stop the transfer... Trump was at the center of that effort." https://t.co/QXwO2UkIaf — PolitiTweet.org

Senate election reform talks are moving on a parallel track to the House’s first Jan. 6 hearings. Key area of common ground is coups are bad and should be stopped, starting with ECA reform. Some lawmakers hope the hearings will help spur Congress to act. https://t.co/v8RTN7GlAK — PolitiTweet.org

NEW: House votes 228-199 to raise the minimum age to buy AR-15-style rifles from 18 to 21. A mostly party-line vote to "retain" the provision in a bigger gun package. GOP leaders are whipping against it. Senate eying a narrower bill without this policy. https://t.co/Imk5cSiQbr — PolitiTweet.org

Some Democrats are suspicious of Cornyn, seeing him as someone who's happy to negotiate but won't get to "yes" on a meaningful bill. MURPHY tells me he's "a good partner," notes they co-wrote Fix NICS. "It's not going to be easy to get to a result. But I think we can get there." — PolitiTweet.org
Sahil Kapur @sahilkapur
What's ON the table: Extending "red flag" laws across states (to petition courts to keep guns away from dangerous people); limited background check changes (18-21, juvenile records, FFL rules for sellers); more money for mental health and school safety. https://t.co/H7kl6Iz7Ug — PolitiTweet.org
Sahil Kapur @sahilkapur
Worth noting how modest these gun talks are. Universal background checks (80+% public support) are off the table. Banning AR-15-style weapons: off the table. Banning high-capacity magazines: off the table. Raising age to 21: all but off the table. https://t.co/H7kl6Iz7Ug — PolitiTweet.org
Sahil Kapur @sahilkapur
For a decade, the main obstacle to a deal has been a mentality—rigorously enforced by pro-gun activists—that any new firearm limits, however modest or 2A-compliant, are a first step to snatching all guns. Cornyn is actively rebutting that notion here. https://t.co/H7kl6Iz7Ug — PolitiTweet.org
