House SpeakerPelosi said she would 'welcome' a bipartisan Senate deal on gun legislation, even if it were more narrow in scope than bills passed by the House this week.
The House on Wednesday passed a raft of gun reform bills in response to a string of recent mass shootings.The House legislation would raise the required purchasing age for semi-automatic weapons from 18 to 21 and ban high-capacity magazines and bump stocks for civilian use, as well as other new restrictions. The bill is unlikely to be approved by the Senate, where bipartisan negotiations on a gun bill are underway.
At her weekly press conference, Pelosi touted the House’s bills but acknowledged that any Senate version of gun legislation would be more narrow in scope.
