Cornyn has been booed by convention attendees in the past.

Cornyn's appearance came just hours after the state party approved a resolution condemning the senator for his work on a bipartisan deal on new gun restrictions in the wake of the Uvalde, Texas school shooting.

The resolution said that red-flag laws violate one's right to due process and that those under the age of 21 are most likely to be victims of violent crime.

The agreement currently being hashed out by Cornyn and other senators includes giving resources to state and tribes to be able to pass red flag laws.

McConnell said on Tuesday that he was in favor of the initial framework.

McConnell said at his weekly press conference that he would be supportive if the legislation reflected what the framework indicated.

The framework was supposed to be turned into legislative text this week but didn't happen. The bill is expected to be put up for a vote next week.

Several of Cornyn's Republican colleagues are not happy with the new agreement, according to a report.

The framework is changing. Josh Hawley is a Republican senator from Missouri.

"There's a lot of unhappiness in the conference that we seem to be approaching a bill that will unite all the Democrats and divide the Republicans," a Republican senator was quoted as saying.

A spokesman for Cornyn wouldn't say anything. Cornyn told attendees that he had never given in to mobs and was not going to start today.
