us senators, agree on a bipartisan gun control deal, but it falls short of top the steps sort by president joe biden. ah, hello, i'm emily. ang, when this is, alex is near alive from dough house, or coming up. france votes for a new parliament with projections putting a manual, mccaulhey party neck and neck. with united left wing alliance. the biggest block in iraq's parliament resigns shipping the country into more uncertainty after an 8 month deadlock over forming a government. and while the search continues, hopes are fading and fighting to men missing in the brazilian, amazon. ah, a bipartisan group of us senators has grayed on
3:02 am
a framework for new gun control laws. it's aimed at coping rising gun violence and would keep guns away from people deemed to be a threat. but critic say the measures don't go far enough, mike hannah, fall this report from washington dc. the framework agreement, photos, weeks of closed door negotiations in the senate. it's one of the 1st bipartisan gun control agreements in decades. we haven't had significant federal legislation in nearly 30 years. so having a framework announced having 10 republican senators long with 10 democrats signing off on that, which would avoid the filibuster in the united states senate. it's a really big deal. the tentative agreement has been welcomed by president fight and who's tweeted. i want to thank senator chris murphy and the bipartisan group for the gun safety proposal. that does not do everything that i think is needed, but it reflects important steps in the right direction. with bipartisan support,
3:03 am
there are no excuses for delay. let's get this done. but some don't want it done. i think it's deeply disappointing that republican leadership decided to get in lead with the democratic conference in the senate to put together a gun control bill. you know, that should be a huge red flag for republican voters going into the fall. significant proposals include incentives for states to pass so called red flag laws, which allow a judge to decide whether a gun via or owner poses a potential threat to others. federal background checks and buyers under $21.00 would include access to the records as minors and federal funding for mental health care and increase school security. so, but these measures for well short of what's being demanded by gun control. advocates including president biden himself at rallies across the us. saturday calls were made for
3:04 am
a ban on the sale of semi automatic weapons and high capacity magazines. and for the age at which an individual can buy a rifle to raise from $18.00 to $21.00. to match the existing federal law concerning hand guns, assault rifles were used in the mass shootings and you've obie, texas, and in buffalo, new york. in each case they were wielded by 18 year olds. the senators have set an informal goal of passing the bill before the 24th of this month when congress goes on a 2 week recess. but with the legislation still not fully written, it's unlikely that this goal will be met and it's certain that the modest suggestions will do little to ease the mounting pressure on politicians to pass meaningful gun control measures or place the consequences in november's mid term elections. mike hannah al jazeera washington,
3:05 am
that's bringing in penny camacho, who's the executive director of survivors empowering she joins me alive from portland, oregon. penny, thanks so much for being on the program. what's your take on these proposed gamble is janica far enough? no, absolutely not. in the united states, we just were witness to be heretic mass shooting of 19 kids and teachers. and had to remember that these kids were so badly shot that they had used dna to identify their bodies. now what's happening at it states is that parents are scared witless . that when they put their get their kids to bed tonight, sunday night, tomorrow morning and monday they're going to have to wake up and find their kids here or some other form of dna to use to identify their bodies. so if the republicans or democrats think that this is enough, they are going to be very disappointed because it's not. now the bill does a couple of good things. the bill does actually close the dating port lupo.
3:06 am
sometimes it's called the boyfriend loophole. it does that, that was actually part of our and i think it will be part of this bill that's good . and the bill also provides funding to community violence intervention programs. but this is a very tiny drop in the bucket. and that i have a very, very big bucket. i want to get your thoughts on that domestic violence and part of the law in a moment. but i just want to get your thoughts on how shall you say this agreement is a sign of progress between the 2 political parties in a way that are moving forward to address gun violence. i don't really, i just see this in terms of, of republicans knowing that the parents, republican parents, democratic parents, all parents across united states are truly frightened. we get phone calls all the time and people keep using the words, they're angry, but also they're nauseated because they know you know how easily this could happen to their children. and they are frightened that congress will do nothing
3:07 am
substantial to stop this. there is no assault weapons ban. there's no ban on high capacity magazines. there's no licensing, there's no registration. and we know that these are things that must happen to take serious action to start to cut a gun violence in the united states. penny into a lot of work around the role of guns in domestic violence. as you mentioned, these laws were his domestic abuses from having guns. what impact will that have on helping save the lives of victims? so we know that a firearm in the home actually increases the risk that, that a woman in the home will be killed to abide by 5 times if there's domestic violence in that home. so there's a huge link between domestic violence and fem aside and is also a significant link between domestic violence and now people who commit domestic violence and then go out to commit other forms of gun violence. so addressing gun violence and making sure that should be addressing domestic violence and making
3:08 am
sure that people who have, who are domestic violence, abusers can no longer have firearms is critically important. saving lives, penny, just briefly. how do you keep them immense him up for gun reform if the lives of the debts rather of 19 children last month is not enough to spare change? what will ultimately, what will end up happening? i believe is that the students, the young people of today they will come to power and they, they will not tolerate this. absolutely not. also, i think the parents of today, the parents have young children are so frightened they will change us. but to really change done laws in united states, there are 2 things that would really help. one is to repeal a supreme court decision called citizens united, which basically said that money is speech. and then the 2nd part is revealing the excuse me, repealing the gun industry immunity of the gun, excuse me, the gun industry immunity law called the protection of legal commerce and arms act
3:09 am
. and that law actually almost completely prohibits gun industry from being sued while we appreciate your insights on this important issue. thank you very much, penny. aka, marcia, executive director of survivors empower. thank you. thank you. to vance. now, where president manuel mccullin's coalition and it's the left wing, rival, neck and neck. in the 1st round of frances legislative elections. projections suggest mccombs centrist alliance should win more states, but could lose their overall majority. he vices competition from a left wing alliance, but by john luke mellon, shaun and sasha butler explains the french president looked relaxed as he voted in the coastal resort of lou to k. but emmanuel, my call face is a challenging week after the 1st round of frances parliamentary elections. his centrist alliance is on track to windlow seats, but not necessarily the majority. he needs to push ahead with his reformer, gender,

was that in historic, no, with less than half of those eligible casting their pallets, this phone comes less than 2 months after the presidential campaigns. there's definitely a sense of election fatigue. it's also the case though, that a growing number of people in france feel fed up of politics and politicians, and increasingly disengaged from the political process with a tight race ahead. the parties will step up their campaigns in a critical test for the president. the big lesson of this 1st round for him and erin mccoys, that he is not certain to have an absolute majority in parliament, and that will make his life more difficult if he hasn't got one. so he is try to hammer this message in the last few days or before the 1st rod, and he will be trying to push that message for the 2nd raw. give me a majority. in one week, voters will return to the polls for the 2nd round of the election and will determine how france is governed for the next 5 years. whether there will be
