Yes, the Senate passed the bill.  Why hasn't Pelosi brought it up?

No legislation for them.
The Senate passed the judge bill over a week ago, and it's been sitting on Nancy's desk. 
The House just passed their gun grabbing bill today. 
The Senate will now rip it up, and replace it with their own. 

Facts matter.
Republicans have seen to it that any bill coming out of the Senate will be toothless, and contain none of the provisions that the majority of Americans are in favor of.
Like expanded background checks, banning assault rifles (or even raising the age to buy them), or banning of high capacity magazines.

Do you know how many bills the House passed that died in the Senate when McConnell was the majority leader?
I don't remember you whining about that.

Nope.
America has always had guns. 
This phenomenon is new.   So what's changed?  
Maybe the way the left has devalued life?  
The way they have made violence a legitimate response to political disagreements?
Maybe their demand to remove God and religion from society?
Maybe the psychotropic drugs being pushed on young boys because they're all ADD?
Maybe the way boys have been taught they're society's evil and that they know they have no future in this new America?

No, can't be any of those things.  It's the guns.   Image
I see you have all of your **** Republican talking points down.
You forgot the one about how you gun fetishists need AR-15s to kill prairie dogs and other varmints.
Or about how it's not the guns, it's the doors that are the problem.
We should just keep all of the school doors locked, which of course would work out great if there were a fire.

I guess we would also need to lock all the doors at supermarkets, Walmarts, churches, movie theaters, concert venues, night clubs, and hospitals.

And now the personal attacks start because Misty has run out of substance. 
Every one of her claims has been debunked WITH LINKS proving she is wrong. 

And now she seems not to understand there is a difference in locking a door so it can't be opened from the outside, but still easily opened by pressing the bar to exit from the inside.    All fire escape doors are equipped with this basic closing mechanism.

This bill passed the Senate unanimously. 
Pelosi doesn't want to bring it to a vote because it will pass, and that will make Democrats oppose the pro baby-murder crowd threatening the Court.

Yea, that would be terrible. 
Clearly the ONLY answer is to take guns away from law abiding citizens that never use their guns illegally.

No one please tell Misty about this story of a man stopped from entering a school, because the doors were locked.
A man who was “aggressively” trying to enter Walnut Park Elementary School in Gadsden, Alabama, was fatally shot by a school resource officer after the suspect reached for the officer’s gun Thursday morning, authorities said.

According to Gadsden City Schools Superintendent Tony Reddick, a “potential intruder” tried to open several doors at the school where a summer literacy program was being held for 34 children. He was unable to enter the school because all of the exterior doors were locked, Reddick said, according to U.S. News.

Of course they have, in keeping with the 2nd Amendment.

Which part of, "the right of the people to keep and bear arms should not be infringed" do you not understand?

Want to change the 2nd Amendment?  FINE!  Go to work and get the supermajority of 38 states (3/4 of the states needed) to back up your desire for a new Constitutional amendment and change it. 
Till then, there's really no point in attempting to demand that Congress do what they are not permitted to do by the Constitution.

Or do you incorrectly believe as Biden does that neither the Constitution or the 2nd Amendment are absolute?

So now people who made a responsible fiscal CHOICE to structure their insurance in that manner are now paying thousands of dollars annually for a service they do not want. You are ok with that? Having middle income people pay thousands more annually is not the cost effective way to do it.

I know quite a few people in that boat and those that did suffer major medical issues were not dropped. Since you made the argument it is incumbent upon YOU to prove it with legitimate links and stats. My wife was in that category and she was not dropped for her issues. And like many, many people we make just a little too much to get a subsidy, this law needs to be repealed.

Three of the people I know are small business owners. 2 of them are not following thru on their plans to hire another worker or two and the other laid off one worker because of this bill and talk of increased min wage.

I thought you self described liberals were all about choice? Hell, I am more liberal than you could ever hope to be, from abortion to government mandates, I firmly believe in freedom of choice in ALL areas, not just abortion.
