“I find it unconscionable,” Biden says of a majority of Republicans who oppose restrictions on semi-automatic rifles, expansion of background checks and safe storage rules — PolitiTweet.org

Safe storage rules for guns in residences a live issue in discussions in Senate, though differences persist between the two sides over how to impose mandates. https://t.co/uV4LA0XQCR — PolitiTweet.org

Biden calls for reinstatement of assault weapons ban, something with no chance in Senate. He calls for limiting high-capacity magazines — also a non-starter among most Rs. Calls for raising age to 21 for purchasing semi-automatic rifles, though skepticism Senate will back that — PolitiTweet.org

Biden: “This is not about taking away anyone’s guns ... I respect the culture and tradition and concerns of lawful gun owners.” Biden: “Guns are the No. 1 killer of children in the United States of America. … How much more carnage are we willing to accept?” — PolitiTweet.org

“You know who didn't have due process? You know who didn't have their constitutional right to life respected? The kids at Parkland, and Sandy Hook, and Uvalde and Buffalo, and the list goes on and on,” Cicilline said — PolitiTweet.org

Murphy has a positive take on McConnell's comments that the problem is mental health and school safety and a bill should target that. "I don't read anything he said to foreclose the deal that is very focused on keeping weapons out of the hands of potentially dangerous people." — PolitiTweet.org

"Spare me the bullshit about constitutional rights," David Cicilline says to Matt Gaetz during hour nine of House Judiciary Committee meeting on guns package -- in debate over red flag laws. — PolitiTweet.org
Manu Raju @mkraju
Still questions about how they will deal with mental health provisions, scope of such a plan. Plus uncertain how much it will cost and if GOP will insist on offsets — something that Dems may resist. Gun storage plan still an issue. Red flag plan and school security talks progress — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Thom Tillis -- involved in bipartisan talks -- was skeptical last week when asked about raising age of buying AR-15s "When I think of that, I think do we take a look at the age you can enlist in the military? So there are a lot of complexities to that question." — PolitiTweet.org
Manu Raju @mkraju
New -- Key gun restrictions won't get into any deal, background checks plan to be narrow and raising age for AR-15s seems unlikely. There's still optimism about incremental deal. Next week will be key. "I'm certainly prepared for failure," Murphy told me https://t.co/uV4LA0XQCR — PolitiTweet.org

In Kentucky, Mitch McConnell again says any guns deal will have to target the "actual problem," which is "mental illness and school safety." No mention of gun restrictions or background checks. Said any deal must be "consistent" with the Second Amendment. — PolitiTweet.org

Asked David Cicilline why push guns bill with no chance of getting 60 votes in Senate. “If the measure was we're going to only pass bills that we had confidence the Senate would pass, we could go home because we have dozens of bills that are sitting in the Senate awaiting action” — PolitiTweet.org
