Colorado house passes ALL gun control measures before it.

>>>Forwarded from the NRA-ILA<<<
In the face of tens of thousands of gun owners, sportsmen and
shooting enthusiasts, anti-gun zealots leading the
rights-infringing charge in Denver passed a package of anti-gun
bills in the state House seeking to undermine the Second
Amendment in Colorado.
House passage of the bills below should be a wake-up call to
everyone across this diverse and freedom-loving state. Your
rights are under an all-out assault by those who see you and
your way of life as a problem that needs to be fixed.
House Bill 1224 – Bans magazines with a capacity greater than
fifteen rounds. (Passed 34-31)
House Bill 1226 – Repeals current law allowing individuals with
a concealed carry permit to carry a firearm for self-defense on
a college or university campus. (Passed 34-31)
House Bill 1228 – Imposes a “gun tax” for a background check
when purchasing a firearm. (Passed 33-32)
House Bill 1229 – Criminalizes the private transfer of a
firearm. (Passed 36-29)
The votes taken today by those House members in favor of these
bills will put hundreds out of work in Colorado, eliminate
hundreds of millions of dollars in economic activity that will
go to other states and make criminals out of unsuspecting
law-abiding citizens.
Our fight is far from over, as this extreme anti-gun legislation
still has to pass in the state Senate and then go to Governor
Hickenlooper for his signature.
WE NEED YOUR HELP TODAY! Call your state Senator and Governor
John Hickenlooper TODAY and respectfully urge them to oppose the
anti-gun bills above. Hold your state Senator accountable and
ask him or her how they will vote on these bills.
Contact information for your state Senator can be found here.
Contact information for Governor John Hickenlooper by email can
be found here and by phone at (303) 866-2471 or 303-866-2885.
Please stay tuned to www.nraila.org for further updates and
information.

It really "DID NOT SURPRISE ME" They went off emotion instead
of facts. I hope they are happy that they "COST" a lot of jobs
in the state and "IN THIER EYES" made good law abiding citizens
criminals. We need to keep the pressure on and make it known
that we are not happy!

Ed Vigil, our Rep, and a Democrat, is the only Democrat to vote
NO on all 4 bills.
