The House of Representatives will vote Wednesday on significant gun control legislation for the first time in more than two decades, a move that Democrats hope will increase a pressure campaign for a vote in the Senate.The universal background check bill, H.R. 8, will come to the floor for a vote and is expected to pass with the Democratic majority. The legislation would require background checks on all firearm sales in the country. Currently, only licensed gun dealers have to perform background checks for anyone seeking to purchase a firearm. Most unlicensed sellers do not; H.R. 8 would make that illegal. There are exemptions to the law like "gifts to family members and transfers for hunting, target shooting, and self-defense," according to the House Judiciary Committee website.The bill, sponsored by a bipartisan duo of Reps. Mike Thompson, a California Democrat, and Peter King, a New York Republican, remains an outlier right now in the House since it has bipartisan support. Most of the legislation related to gun control has been sponsored by Democrats.Four other Republicans co-sponsored the bill: Brian Mast of Florida, Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania, Chris Smith of New Jersey and Fred Upton of Michigan. King told CNN on Tuesday that he may get a few more Republican colleagues to vote for the measure, but "no more than a handful."At a 25-year anniversary party for the gun control group the Brady Campaign on Tuesday evening, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi expressed confidence that the universal background checks bill would pass the House of Representatives. At the event, Pelosi also recalled her her efforts with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer in the 1990s on gun control as "hard," but a "triumph that saved millions of lives.""Tomorrow we're going to send him the background check legislation," Pelosi said to her Senate colleague with a wide smile.Schumer predicted that the country is on the "precipice of great change" on the issue of gun safety."We have a Democratic House that will not flinch. We have a Senate Democratic minority that will not flinch. Most of all, we have a public who is aroused and strong."Democrats, including Pelosi, have made this a top policy priority in the new Congress, staging public hearings on the topic which had not been held for years in Congress. The legislation also has the backing of a multitude of outside groups, including the former congresswoman and gun control advocate Gabby Giffords, the Brady Campaign, Everytown for Gun Safety and Moms Demand Action.Once it passes the House, the bill will move to the Senate, where it is unlikely to pass in the Republican-majority chamber when legislation often needs 60 or more votes to advance.On Tuesday, King urged his Senate colleagues to consider the bill."I would think that they should let it come to a vote," he said, adding that the average American supports the universal background checks bill."This is not going to affect more than probably less than 1% of the American people and the ones it will affect either suffer from mental illness or are criminals. So to me, it's a phony issue being raised by some of the gun groups," he said.King understands that public opinion is on his side on this issue. 3247

The House has voted to send two articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump to the Senate. Pelosi signed off on sending the articles across the U.S. Capitol to the Senate for only the third such trial in American history. Trump complained anew of a “hoax,” even as new details emerged about his political efforts in Ukraine. The move to the Senate takes the case from Pelosi's Democratic-majority House to the Republican-controlled Senate, where the president's team is mounting a defense aiming for swift acquittal.Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said that the Senate will accept the articles at noon Thursday. At 2 p.m., Chief Justice John Roberts will be seated in the Senate. McConnell said the formal trial will begin on Tuesday. 764

The judge in the case of a former Dallas police officer charged with murder in the death of Botham Jean, a 26-year-old black accountant, in his own apartment said Monday she intends to sequester the jury for the proceedings.District Judge Tammy Kemp's announcement came after attorneys for the former officer, Amber Guyger, informed the judge that Dallas County District Attorney John Creuzot conducted an interview with a local television station Sunday night, despite a gag order in the case.In the interview, Creuzot spoke about how observers were "misinterpreting" the facts of the case and how murder was the appropriate charge for Guyger.Kemp was visibly annoyed and asked, "Let me be clear on last night: The evening prior to the start of this trial, our elected district attorney did an interview about this trial?" Defense lawyers confirmed he had.The judge asked a prosecutor whether he was aware of the interview, and he replied he'd been informed Monday morning. Kemp asked where Creuzot was, and the prosecutor said he hadn't spoken to the district attorney Monday."Hmm. Curious," Kemp said before calling a recess to examine the video.Guyger's defense team requested a mistrial, but when Kemp returned to the courtroom she said she would be sequestering the jury and interviewing them on whether they saw Creuzot's interview.Spectators turned awayGuyger arrived at the Frank Crowley Courts Building in the morning, and local clergy held a prayer vigil outside before Kemp began handling pretrial motions in the case.Interest in the case is high. A large crowd gathered outside the courtroom, unable to enter the 49-seat venue. One woman shouted, "This is an injustice," as would-be spectators were turned away.Pamela Grayson of Duncanville, southwest of Dallas, was particularly upset. She said she's always gotten along well with white people. She's studied hard, earning her doctorate, and never been in trouble with the law, but Jean's case "changed my life," she said."I always thought that if I did right that the police brutality wouldn't come my way," she continued, tears welling in her eyes. "I stand on my own two feet and I do right. Botham did that, and he's still dead. So now, I have no safety. How am I supposed to stop somebody from breaking into my home and killing me and getting away with it?"On September 6, 2018, Guyger fatally shot Jean in his apartment, saying she believed it was her unit, which was one floor below, police said.Guyger was indicted on the murder charge more than two months later. She has pleaded not guilty, and faces up to life in prison if convicted.The shooting sparked days of protests in Dallas and calls for the white officer to be charged. Civil rights lawyer Benjamin Crump, one of the Jean family attorneys, said the shooting was another example of the threat of violence black people live with.'I thought it was my apartment'Guyger was off duty but still in uniform when she parked her car at the South Side Flats and walked to what she believed was her apartment, according to 3056

The 7.1 magnitude earthquake that shook California on Friday also ripped open a fissure.When the shaking started at 8:19 p.m., many scrambled for cover. It was the second strong earthquake to hit the area in less than 48 hours.The immediate damage it caused was very clear. Stores had broken bottles and exploded cans littering their floors and other items that had been hanging on walls had toppled over.As the sun rose the next day, it also became clear that the area's topography had changed.Satellite images provided to CNN by Planet Labs, Inc. show a crack has formed in the area close to the epicenter.The large crack extends some distance from an area that apparently held water before. The erosion patterns on the desert sand indicate that some of that water was sucked out.The satellite image isn't the only evidence that the region's topography was changed by the earthquake.A nearby highway is now shutdown after tremors cracked and moved sections of the roadway. 986
