HOUSE JUDICIARY APPROVES PERMANENT “DENY-ON-ARREST”


HB10-1391, sponsored by Rep. Joe Rice (D) and co-sponsored by four anti-gun Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee, was approved by the Committee Monday on a 6-5 vote.  This bill would prevent the expiration of Colorado’s “Deny-on-Arrest” policy and make it permanent.  The only Democrat dissent was Rep. Sal Pace, who also recently voted in favor of a bill that would improve Colorado’s “Make My Day” law.  CSSA President Tony Fabian testified against the bill, pointing out several flaws in the reasoning and concerns of the bill’s proponents, including the sponsor’s false claim that the bill was necessary to continue background checks for firearm purchases in Colorado.  The bill now goes to the House floor for final vote.

Everyone in Colorado’s firearms community knows someone who has been unfairly victimized by this unfair, unjust and unconstitutional law.  Please call your state representative at 303-866-2904 and strongly urge them to oppose HB10-1391, as it infringes on the rights of all law-abiding Colorado gun owners.
