Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas), the top Republican negotiator for the Senate’s newly unveiled gun control bill, has said he will not take part in a new round of gun control talks concerning proposals aimed at limiting access to certain rifles or expanding background checks.

The lawmaker was asked by reporters on July 12 whether Republicans would negotiate with Democrats on proposals that would limit the availability of some sporting rifles along with other gun control reforms, to which Cornyn simply replied, “No, we’re done,” according to The Hill.
