The governmental body convened Thursday with its debate over <a href=\"https:\/\/www.congress.gov\/bill\/117th-congress\/house-bill\/8?q=%7B%22search%22%3A%5B%22hr+8%22%5D%7D&amp;s=1&amp;r=1\">H.R.8<\/a>, which is a bill that would expand background checks to all gun sales.<\/p>\n<p>Democrats have claimed instituting a longer waiting period and monitoring private sales would prevent gun violence. However, experts like Crime Prevention Research Center President Dr. John Lott have asserted there are several flaws in the Democrats\u2019 logic.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Lott: Gun safety groups ascendant in Biden White House: <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/6cCYuNQ0X3\">https:\/\/t.co\/6cCYuNQ0X3<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/OANN?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#OANN<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 One America News (@OANN) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/OANN\/status\/1365484320408805379?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 27, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>While the bill is titled the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.congress.gov\/bill\/117th-congress\/house-bill\/8?q=%7B%22search%22%3A%5B%22hr+8%22%5D%7D&amp;s=1&amp;r=1\">Bipartisan Background Checks Act of 2021<\/a>, only three of the 210 co-sponsors of the bill are Republicans.
