It's the most significant gun reform bill to become law in nearly 30 years. And only time will tell if the Republicans who helped make it happen will be punished or rewarded for their efforts.
But, it's too late to cry over spilled milk now that President Biden has signed the bill into law.
Key features of the new bill include enhanced background checks for gun buyers between the ages of 18 and 21, tougher red flag laws and the closure of the so-called "boyfriend loophole."
While the bill has been hailed as a "bipartisan" measure, that only means that it was able to glean enough support from GOP members that a filibuster was avoided. That said, Democrats are peeved that the bill didn't do more, and plenty of Republicans are peeved that it was able to pass at all.
Here were the opening satirical lines from the article, which the fictitiously attributed to Adam Schiff. "On January 6th, a branch of our federal government was almost overthrown because politicians used dangerous rhetoric that caused—wait, hold on everyone, I just got the update. Roe's been overturned!" said Representative Adam Schiff. "Okay, well if all the Republicans could please sit tight, there will be a brief recess while our Democratic caucus takes to the streets demanding we overthrow a branch of the federal government."
