Chuck Canterbury does NOT have sufficient support in the Judiciary Committee and is now expected to be held up instead of getting a vote today," a GOP Senate aide told the Free Beacon on Thursday morning. "Republican members are (1) Concerned about his stances on gun control, and (2) there is still some bad blood for him flipping the Fraternal Order of Police in support of the First Step Act (after opposing the more moderate version), allegedly in exchange for the ATF Director nomination."
"His 2A views are bad and he'd lose a lot of votes in committee," a second Senate source told the Free Beacon. https://freebeacon.com/politics/senate-republicans-shut-down-atf-nominee/?fbclid=IwAR0RU6IUCtBupnIb5JofpmTs_0Cgn13Y9l2ZcTM46W7-uokRfB6kn4OPOIQ
