The House passed H.R. 8, requiring a background check for every firearm sale, 227-203. Overall, you have to go through an FFL (Federal Firearms License) to "transfer possession" of firearms.
Eight Republicans, yes, eight, voted yes. One Democrat voted no.
Only two Republicans helped push through H.R .1446, which expanded background checks.
