House GOP pushes to loosen gun rules

House GOP leaders are moving forward with plans to vote on two gun-related measures in the coming weeks, the first time Congress has taken up the controversial issue since Donald Trump became president.A bill easing regulations on the purchases of gun silencers — also known as suppressors — could reach the House floor as early as next week.Another measure allowing "concealed carry" permit holders to bring their weapons to other states is also expected to move through the House Judiciary Committee and onto the floor this fall, possibly in October, according to GOP lawmakers and aides.Both proposals are almost certain to pass the House, despite intense opposition from gun-control groups.
