Thank you for taking the time to reach out to my office with your perspective around possible gun safety legislation. Your input is critical in strengthening our democratic process and in helping me to best represent our district.
In the wake of the recent high profile gun violence that has occurred in Colorado and nationally, it is clear that we are engaged in a public conversation about gun safety, violence, mental health, and school security. As bills may be introduced by the 100 members of the general assembly, I will consider the specifics of this proposed legislation and weigh all the options. I remain committed to protecting Second Amendment rights, balanced with ensuring the safety of our citizens.
I appreciate your input on firearms-related issues and believe that we need to have a balanced and ongoing public discussion about gun safety to determine the best course of action. Coloradans must collectively find reasonable solutions that protect the Second Amendment rights of our law-abiding citizens, while keeping guns out of the hands of dangerous people and finding a more comprehensive approach to dealing with factors that could contribute to violence, such as mental illness.
Please continue to follow the legislation introduced this session on the general assembly’s website, and contact me with your comments on specific legislation. I value your opinion and will always consider the input of my district before casting my vote in the Colorado State Senate.
Sincerely,
Senator Gail Schwartz
From the office of:
Gail Schwartz, Colorado State Senator
