A Hobbled NRA Takes a Backseat

CNN: “But thanks to years of shedding its claim to bipartisanship and aligning almost entirely with the Republican Party, the country’s premier pro-gun lobby’s agenda has firmly planted its agenda within the GOP, a legacy that continues to frustrate efforts to change gun laws.”

“Both Republican and Democratic aides have told CNN the NRA has not been much of a factor on Capitol Hill in recent months.”

That said, the Washington Post reports that prospects for new gun control laws remain.
