House Passes Gun Control HR-8 with help from Florida Republicans

---

The far left which currently controls our federal government, is coming after your guns. See: “A look at Democrats HR-8 Universal Background Checks Bill“.

The first step on this road is House bill HR-8, which mandates “universal background checks” and much more that is troubling. Passed 227-203, eight “Republicans” joined all but 1 Democrat in passage. Three of these eight were from Florida, and have been placed on our “RINO WATCH”:

• Vern Buchanan – CD16 (Sarasota and Manatee counties)
• Carlos Gimenez – CD26 (Monroe County)
• Maria Salazar – CD27 (Miami Dade)

It should be noted that Gimenez, as well as Mario Diaz Balart (CD25 Miami-Dade, Collier) already had the “RINO Watch” distinction for their vote to strip Marjorie Taylor Greene of her committee assignments.

Our own Congressman Brian Mast (CD18) voted against this infringement on the second amendment, (see: “Mast Reverses Position on Background Checks” ) and so far has a perfect score on our 9 bill “RINO Watch” list.
