Summary: GUN CONTROL BLOCKED. The Senate voted to block expanding background checks for gun buyers, a ban on assault weapons and a ban on high-capacity gun magazines. The votes come after weeks of lobbying from the National Rifle Association on one side and families of the victims of the Newtown school massacre on the other.
