House Democrats plan to push a bill to require a background check for every gun sale in America, according to a report from Mother Jones.

Rep. Mike Thompson (D-Calif.) plans to introduce a bill that will require universal background checks, according to the news outlet.

Thompson expects to have some Republican supporters of the bill but did not specify how many votes he hopes to get.

A previous GOP co-sponsor of gun control legislation with Thompson, Rep. Pete King (R-N.Y.), told Mother Jones that he would back it.
