They can resume the discussion of the bill but the first vote on the motion to proceed cannot happen until at least 10:30am. That is when the cloture motion that Reid submitted Tuesday matures.

If this passes we are screwed. This legislation essentially will create a registery. It states that the AG has 1 year to create a publicly viewed website of States rankings of NICS checks and is left open ended for registration.

I was unnerved by Murphy, but Blumenthal out-stupids him by miles.
It's all about feelings, and "seizing this oppoortunity", that has, by his own admission, been his focus for many years.

Great points made by Mike Lee. What is unreasonable about delaying debate until you can actually read the text of key components of the bill such as the Toomey-Manchin compromise.
Now CSPAN is re-running the Toomey-Manchin conference.

Reid wants to suspend the usual rule requiring a 30-hour delay after the motion to proceed vote in order to bring a vote on the Toomey-Manchin Amendment today before any of us can read the text and hammer our Senators on it. |

No, it's good. It'll get so loaded that its' overall failure is more likely. Alternatively, voting down the amendments gives cover to the fence sitters on the right who are considering voting for the overall bill. |

Hopefully the Republican's have a plan to introduce a dozen poison pills using vague language. For example talking about registration but then having it only apply to machine guns and have the end result simply be opening back up the registry.
