Please send them your polite comments, something like: "I understand that you will be in the position to stop the progress of bill 1226, and I encourage you to do so. Overturning the decision of the Colorado State Supreme Court to allow citizens to defend themselves anywhere they go in Colorado is bad law, as studies show that concealed carry permit holders commit crimes at a rate lower than that of the general population, but also lower than law enforcement officers. Do not let this piece of well-intentioned, but ineffective legislation make to a vote."
