arts now," Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid acknowledged after
Thursday's vote.He assured Democrats that a proposal to renew the assault
weapons ban and a ban on high-capacity magazines would get a vote
as an amendment, though it was dropped from the main bill amid
intense opposition.The main bill also includes a measure to increase school
safety funding.Reid lost two Democrats in Thursday's vote -- Sen. Mark Pryor,
D-Ark., and Sen. Mark Begich, D-Alaska, both lawmakers from states with
a strong tradition of gun ownership.More than a dozen Republican senators
for days had threatened to hold up the bill Thursday. They voiced
concern that the proposal -- namely, the background checks provision --
would infringe on Second Amendment rights and impose a burden on law-abiding
gun owners. They also expressed frustration that, while Manchin and Toomey
touted their compromise measure, the bill on the table Thursday did not
yet include that. Rather, it included a stricter background checks provision."Because
the background-check measure is the centerpiece of this legislation it is
critical that we know what is in the bill before we vote

chairman. "It's 100 percent voluntary. There are no big mandates in this
bill, and industry says under these conditions they think they can share

them."The Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act, or CISPA, is widely
backed by industry groups that say businesses are struggling to defend against
aggressive and sophisticated attacks from hackers in China, Russia and Eastern
Europe.Privacy and civil liberties groups have long opposed the bill because
they say it opens America's commercial records to the federal government
without putting a civilian agency in charge, such as the Homeland Security
Department or Commerce Department. That leaves open the possibility that
the National Security Agency or another military or intelligence office
would become involved, they said. While the new program would be intended
to transmit only technical threat data, opponents said they worried that
personal information could be passed along, too.Democratic Reps. Adam Schiff
of California and Jan Schakowsky of Illinois were the lone dissenters. At
a press conference, they said they would push for amendments on the
House floor next week that would specifically bar the military from taking
a central role in data collection and instead put the Homeland Security
Department in charge. They also
