The House and Senate met briefly yesterday though, being in that part of the cycle leading to more committee action, things will quite down for now.  That will change in due course.

 

The House  Judiciary - Criminal Committee did approve for consideration yesterday HR163 Firearms Deaths - Reduce and HR166 Women's Issue - Gun Issue.  The vote on HR166 appears to be misreported at 16/0/0.

They're HRs, not HBs, so they're just expressing opinions. They don't even rise to the level of counter-productive laws, although maybe that's a good thing.

They want to lure legislators into committing to voting for "anti hate" legislation, to presumably be followed by their typical anti gun legislation.

100% this. Baby steps for bigger things down the road in the (very) near future. And hate will define hate? Anything the SPLC says?

Much like the definition of "hate speech", they mean "people we disagree with".
