On the Senate floor Monday afternoon, Senator Cornyn spoke about the bipartisan agreement reached between Senate Republicans and Democrats in response to the deadly mass shooting in Uvalde.

Those buyers would have their juvenile records looked at closely as part of the criminal background check.There is also support for state crisis intervention orders, which Cornyn said is more than just providing states incentives for states that establish red-flag laws.

Cornyn said from the beginning he would not support any provisions that banned assault-style rifles and that raised the age to buy one of those weapons from 18 to 21. The Senate is evenly split among Republicans and Democrats. "I would absolutely approve this," Veasey said."Again, I think there definitely needs to be more suit worried about, you know, people like the shooting that was in Midland people being able to get guns, again, through private sales, and not have to go through some sort of a background check. We need tougher laws in this country to stop terrorists than bad guys and criminals and sociopaths from getting guns. I'm committed to making it harder for people like that to get guns.

This bill has nothing to do with Uvalde or any other mass shooting. This bill is about Domestic Violence with a sliver of policy about guns.

He’s been paid $340,000 by gun lobbyists.

He voted yes to the guns for TX legislation.
