Gun control passes House amid NRA clash in debate
The House approved a gun control bill 504 to 118 despite amendments backing the NRA, sending it to the Senate where action is not expected until September. The measure tightens interstate sales and age limits while expanding licensing and reporting requirements, with opponents decrying NRA influence and warning of hearings if amendments survive. The Senate Judiciary also approved a similar bill and sent it to the floor.
