On Monday, April 22nd, the Colorado Senate passed two anti-gun bills, HB 24-1348 (mandatory vehicle storage) and HB 24-1174 (increased training requirements for concealed carry permits). HB 24-1348 now advances to the governor's desk for his consideration and HB 24-1174 will return to the House for a concurrence vote because of a Senate amendment. Please use the two Take Action buttons below to ask Governor Polis to VETO HB 24-1348 and the House to OPPOSE HB 24-1174!
TAKE ACTION: Ask Governor Polis to VETO HB 24-1348!
HB 24-1348 mandates that firearms stored in unattended vehicles must be kept in a locked hard-sided container that is kept out of view or within the locked trunk of the vehicle. The bill creates civil penalties for infractions.
TAKE ACTION: Ask Your Representative to OPPOSE HB 24-1174!
HB24-1174, increases the training requirements for concealed carry permit applicants and requires class instructors to be certified by the Colorado Bureau of Investigation. This legislation is a solution in search of a problem, meant to harass gun owners and instructors by arbitrarily raising the qualification standards and likely the costs, despite not showing any existing deficiency in the current training standards.
