Colorado Dems Plan To Pursue A Variety Of Gun Laws In 2020
By Bente Birkeland, CPR News | December 9, 2019

Colorado Democrats are poised to make a bid for stricter gun policies during the 2020 legislative session.

The move follows the passage of a so-called ‘red flag’ gun law in 2019 that allows a court to temporarily remove firearms from someone who might be at risk of harming themselves or others. The new law goes into effect on January 1.

Sullivan said there are only eight states that require the reporting of a stolen or lost firearm. The first thing he’d like to do is sponsor a measure to add Colorado to that list.

Another proposal in the works from Democratic Rep. Monica Duran would deal with safe gun storage.

Members of both political parties seem to be on board with more money for things like mental health resources in schools. The rest will be up for debate when the new legislative session opens on Jan.8, 2020.
