I laughed out loud when I read this. He promised a vote. Never said what kind of vote.

Surprise! It's a vote to table.

Any ideas on when the vote will be?

I haven't read any of it. What is the compromise? What do conservatives get?

You get to prove your innocence to the government with no time limit. This is precisely why I've been saying that Cornyn's Bill was a compromise - it was a simple delay unless they could basically get an arrest warrant. There was at least a glimmer of due process.

Again I haven't read the text of the bill (if it's even available!) so I may be mistaken on aspects of it.

EDIT - Looks like I may have been mistaken, quoted from the story I shared below:

It also would have given people denied firearms a 14-day period to appeal the decision and would have reimbursed their attorney’s fees in the case of a successful appeal.

Not really sure what the 14 days is. You have 14 days to prove your innocence so you can buy, or 14 days for them to prove your guilt and if they don’t the purchase goes through.

I've read some on this bill and I don't see it having a ton of difference from Feistein's bill, but I haven't read the entire thing. Seems like it's a minimal compromise, if any at all. I don't see why this is being entertained...
