The ban cleared a procedural hurdle that allows them to move forward with expedited debate on Friday afternoon, with a final vote expected to follow. Three Democrats - Reps. Vicente Gonzalez, , Jared Golden, , and Kurt Schrader, Ore., voted 'no' with all , but the resolution passed 217 -211. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi meanwhile broke out a floor sign advertising AR-15s for children as she urged members to vote in favor of the ban.
