RMGO Comments on Current CO Legislation Thread
From RMGO: Gun Control Bills up TOMORROW
Over the last two days, despite massive grassroots opposition from RMGO members and supporters, a number of extremely anti-gun bills passed out of committee and are headed to the House floor.
The bill will now be heard in the House.
Those of you who showed up at the Capitol to oppose ALL restrictions on our gun rights - Thank you.
But our work isn't done. Anti-gun Democrats in the House are feeling the heat from gun owners. Gun Owners like you and I need to keep up the pressure.
These anti-gun bills will be up for the second reading in the House chamber TOMORROW!
Among the draconian measures expected to be debated:
- HB-1224: Bans all magazines that hold more than 15 rounds.
- HB-1226: Bans armed self-defense on college campuses; expanding criminal safe-zones to all state college and university campuses.
- HB-1228: Imposes a Jim Crow-style gun tax on all purchases. This legislation has no limit on the amount the CBI could charge for a background check.
- HB-1229: Bans the private sale of firearms and institutes universal background checks / gun registration for all Colorado gun owners.
With more attempts at restricting your Second Amendment rights on the table at the Capitol, your activism is needed now more than ever.
To stop ALL gun control schemes from becoming law, I need you to take action RIGHT NOW!
Here's what you can do to help out:
- Please contact your State Representative TODAY, and politely remind them that gun owners are watching how they vote. Urge them to vote "NO" on HB-1224, HB-1226, HB-1228 and HB-1229 (click here: http://www.leg.state.co.us/ to find out who your State Representative is).
- Come to the Capitol TOMORROW (Friday, February 15th) and hold your legislator accountable. Your presence in the House gallery will out them on notice that their constituents DO NOT support more gun control. The House session starts at 9:00 AM. Be there by 8:15 AM to ensure you have a seat.
- Click here to sign the STOP the Colorado Gun Ban petition, and please consider chipping in $10 or $20 to help RMGO keep up the fight against the gun grabbers across Colorado.
Thanks, in advance, for taking action.

Dudley Brown,
Executive Director

Dear fellow Patriot,
In a few minutes, the Colorado House of Representatives will begin the first round of floor debate on four extremely anti-gun bills.
Among the draconian measures they will debate today, are:
• HB-1224: Bans all magazines that hold more than 15 rounds.
• HB-1226: Bans armed self-defense on college campuses; expanding criminal safe-zones to all state college and university campuses.
• HB-1228: Imposes a Jim Crow-style GUN TAX on all firearm purchases. This legislation has no limit on the amount the CBI could charge for a background check.
• HB-1229: Bans the private sale of firearms and institutes universal background checks/gun registration for all Colorado gun owners.
Anti-gun Democrats are feeling the heat. Capitol sources say that some Democrats may be wavering in their support of these gun control bills.
It’s not too late to late to contact them urge them, politely, to vote against these anti-gun bills.
Below are links to Facebook, Twitter, and e-mail for Democratic House members who need to hear from gun owners like you. They check their email, Twitter and Facebook accounts on the House floor, so this is GREAT opportunity to put pressure on them.
If you’re not sure what to say, here’s some sample language: “Representative: Please do not penalize Colorado’s law-abiding gun owners. I urge you to vote “NO” on these anti-gun bills (HB-1224, HB-226, HB-1228 & HB-1229).”
Please do not delay -- every moment counts.
Contact these Representatives, RIGHT NOW. Politely, urge them to vote “NO” on gun control.
For liberty,
Dudley Brown Executive Director
P.S. In a few minutes, the Colorado House of Representatives will begin second reading floor debate on legislation banning magazine that hold more than 15 rounds, universal background checks/registration, imposing a GUN TAX on every firearms purchase, and banning concealed carry on college campuses.
