Punchbowl News: “It appears that the negotiations are back ‘on track’ following discussions over the weekend between the bipartisan groups of senators trying to hash out the package. These talks are being led by Sens. Chris Murphy (D-CT) and John Cornyn (R-TX), with Sens. Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ.) and Thom Tillis (R-NC) filling out the rest of the ‘core’ group.”
“The discussions were hung up over two key issues – the so-called ‘boyfriend loophole,’ and providing funds to states that don’t implement red flag laws but instead have crisis intervention programs.”
“However, there appears to have been some concessions by Democrats on both these issues, and the negotiations are moving forward again… This doesn’t necessarily mean the Senate will clear the bill by the start of this recess, as Democrats had hoped. But there is some momentum again, which is far different from the mood when the Senate left on Thursday.”
