That was Manchin-Toomey.  It was the first amendment the Senate voted on.

unfy:
CSPAN was saying there were 6 votes tonight, i only counted 5 ?  CSPAN wrong ? Me wrong ? I'm confused ?

And what are the few remaining amendments for tomorrow morning ?

Now Harry Reid is trying to shame the Republicans for not voting to expand background checks by using the victims again. He says its not over and that this is just the beginning.
