WASHINGTON - The Senate voted Friday to shield firearms manufacturers, dealers and importers from lawsuits brought by victims of gun crimes, a measure opponents said had been ordered up by the gun lobby.

The 65-31 vote passed a bill that supporters said protects the industry from financial disaster and bankruptcy caused by damage lawsuits.

“This bill says go after the criminal, don’t go after the law-abiding gun manufacturer or the law-abiding gun seller,” said bill sponsor Sen. Larry Craig, R-Idaho.
