Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) said he still hasn’t decided whether he’ll support the Manchin-Toomey background check legislation but reaffirmed that he’s favorably disposed.

“I’m favorably inclined,” he told reporters in the Capitol Tuesday afternoon. “I haven’t made up my mind.”

Asked what would win his support, he said he’d like to examine it some more and is “concerned about the Internet aspect of it.”

McCain said he has “no idea” what changes the two senators are considering in order to win over skeptical members. “I’m not involved in that,” he said.
