Re: the Toomey Amendment to S. 649

There is a press conference at 11:00am Eastern today to explain this "deal.". The very little press I've seen on it says it will extend background checks to "gun shows" and "internet sales" though how those two are defined was not discussed. In the past we have seen "gun shows" defined so broadly they would catch most private sales.

Edited to correct conference time
