"Take the gun first, go through due process second", Trump said.

The Republican-controlled Florida Senate Committee on Rules passed SB 7026 in a 9-4 vote before a packed crowd this week.

"The reason that nothing has gotten done here is that the gun lobby has had veto power over any legislation that comes before Congress", Murphy said.

He says of gun legislation, "We'd love to do that at some point", and he's "hoping there's a way forward".

At a press conference on Tuesday, his first since the school shooting in Florida two weeks ago in which 17 people died, House speaker Paul Ryan indicated his opposition to further restrictions on gun ownership. The Senate will next take up Idaho GOP Sen. One Republican senator, Mike Lee of Utah, is blocking the bill from rapid consideration because of constitutional objections, while in the House, hard-line conservatives have similar concerns that could make it tricky for Ryan to move the measure through the chamber.

Legislation in the Senate would to close what critics call the gun show and online sales loophole.

A measure called the Fix NICS Act would create incentives and penalties to improve reporting to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System and has the backing of the National Rifle Association, the powerful gun-rights advocacy group.

The sharp departure was the result of widespread confusion on Capitol Hill over guns.

Republican Sen. Ben Sasse of Nebraska, who was not at the bipartisan meeting, slammed Trump's statement.

That meeting followed a familiar pattern for many lawmakers who are trying to write and pass legislation that can meet Trump's shifting approval.

The White House is expected to reveal more on the president's plans for school safety later this week.

President Donald Trump emerged as an unlikely moderate on gun control on Thursday. "Incredibly we're set to do nothing re gun control again", Rivera tweeted. "It would be so handsome to have one bill that everybody can support, as opposed to - you know - 15 bills, everybody's got their own bill". "It was wild", said South Dakota Sen.

President Donald Trump will be meeting with members of the video game industry next week as he continues to discuss ways to prevent school shootings.

The government will run out of money after midnight on March 23 if Congress does not approve a spending bill.

The Senate may pass its own version of the Bill, without the connected legislation liberalising the laws on the right to carry concealed weapons across state lines. Steve Daines (R-MT) told TPM.

Congressional inaction, however, when combined with the political distractions coming from the White House, have given me a renewed sense of optimism about the ultimate outcome of this long struggle. "We all are interested in our children being safe in schools; we're all interested in the communities being safe". But he also showed interest in re-examining the gun laws and making changes.

Rep. Brian Mast, a wounded Afghanistan war veteran, said he described his proposal to ban assault weapons to his House GOP colleagues overnight at a closed-door meeting.

"There's still an element of unpredictability on what the White House is willing to lean on from a gun safety reform measure", Costello said. "There was a bit of contradiction in what he said". That legislation, co-sponsored by Senate Majority Whip John Cornyn (R-Texas), would reinforce existing background check laws to provide the Federal Bureau of Investigation with more information about the criminal histories of those seeking a gun. "I don't know. So, I was just curious as to what you did in your bill?".

After a wide-ranging, televised meeting Wednesday at the White House, Democrats walked away stunned and with some tepid optimism that something substantial could happen on guns, while Republicans appeared flummoxed.

"I like taking guns away early", Trump said. Kansas is the country's top sorghum producer.
