Controversies

Rep. Stephanie Luck's claim that the majority intends to eliminate firearms in Colorado by 2028

Rep. Luck stated she 'was apprised that members of the majority were deliberately seeking to effectuate this goal in Colorado by 2028 to eliminate firearms from this space'; no majority member named or responding on the record, and the Chair reminded members of the rule against impugning the motives of other members (in response to a separate remark by Rep. Keltie, not Luck specifically).

Notable Quotes

“The fiscal note itself indicates arrests and convictions under these new crimes that have been created are highly unlikely. That should give us pause. We're expanding our criminal code, restricting constitutional rights and increasing penalties for something that analysts believe will rarely, if ever, be prosecuted.”

Rep. Chris Richardson — Richardson was opposing HB 26-1144, which bans manufacture of firearms through 3D printing, arguing that the bill's own fiscal note undermines the case for passing it.
