Burr Amendment being considered. Would remove veterans whose only qualification was having someone appointed to handle their finances.

This and one more vote today. Will resume tomorrow.

Correction: Would require a court to decide if a veteran, who is deemed mentally incompetent, can own a gun.

I found a list of 14 amendments to S649, numbers 711-724.

Unfortunately, I didn't note the amendment numbers as they were voted on today.

With 7 remaining, I still don't know which 2 are up tomorrow.

Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) and Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.) that would expand federal mental health programs, including in education, suicide prevention and trauma centers.
