Bill Number | Title | RFOR Position | Sponsor(s) | Committee | Status | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
SB26-004 | Red Flag ERPO Expansion | Oppose | Sullivan Froelich | House State, Civic, Military, & Veterans Affairs | • Passed Senate 2/3 • House Committee Hearing 3/2 at 1:30pm Old State Library | Expands persons allowed to file Red Flag ERPOs to include hospitals and mental health clinics, crisis co-responders, treatment centers, K-12 schools, and colleges or universities. More info HERE. |
SB26-043 | Record Keeping & Regulation of Sale of Firearm Barrel | Oppose | Sulivan Froelich Brown | Sen State, Veterans, & Military Affairs | • Senate Committee Hearing 2/12 upon adjournment (approx 10am) Old Supreme Court | Regulates gun barrels in Colorado by forcing most barrels sales through FFLs, banning private sales and transfers, and creating new misdemeanor crimes for selling or possessing a barrel with alleged intent to sell. It requires FFLs to collect and retain detailed buyer information for five years and places enforcement responsibility on dealers. More info HERE. |
HB26-1144 | Prohibit Possession of Firearm Manufacturing Files and CNC/3D Printing of Firearms or Components | Oppose | Boesnecker Ghilcrest Sullivan Wallace | House Judiciary | • House Committee Hearing 2/18 at 1:30pm HCR 0107 | Prohibits the manufacture of firearms and firearm components using 3D printing or CNC machining, and restricts the possession and distribution of digital files used for such manufacturing. More info HERE. |
HB26-1126 | Requirements For Firearm Dealers/Digital Gun Owner Registry | Oppose | Woodrow Sirota Kipp | House State, Civic, Military, & Veterans Affairs | • House Committee Hearing 3/2 at 1:30pm Old State Library | Dramatically expands Colorado’s existing firearm dealer permit system by mandating electronic records for all firearm transactions, imposes new security and staff training requirements, and authorizes $100k fines. While framed as “dealer regulation,” the bill builds the framework for firearm tracking and uses administrative punishment to pressure gun stores into compliance. More info HERE. |
HB26-1021 | Second Amendment Protection Act | Support | Bradley Brooks | House Judiciary | • House Committee Hearing 2/17 upon adjournment (approx 10am) HCR 0107 | Repeals Colorado’s sweeping gun laws, including SB25-003 which imposed major restrictions on semiautomatic firearms, along with training, and purchasing requirements. It also eliminates the 3-day waiting period, rolls back dealer and gun-show regulations, repeals firearm-industry liability standards, limits local gun-control authority, and abolishes the Office of Gun Violence Prevention, effectively undoing much of Colorado’s recent gun-control framework. And more. |
HB26-1108 | FBI Surveillance of CBI Fingerprinted Individuals | Oppose | Lukens Hartsook Michaelsen-Jenet Rich | House Judiciary | • House Committee Hearing 2/18 at 1:30pm HCR 0107 | Authorizes the Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to participate in the FBI’s Rap Back Service, a continuous monitoring program that gives implicit permission for the FBI to surveil anyone who undergoes a CBI fingerprint background check, such as is done for Concealed Handgun Permits. More info HERE. |
HB26-1072 | Codification of Firearm Rights & Repeal of Red Flag ERPO Laws | Support | Slaugh | House State, Civic, Military, & Veterans Affairs | • House Committee Hearing 3/2 at 1:30pm Old State Library | Affirms an individual’s right to own, possess, and use a firearm to the maximum extent permitted by the state and federal constitutions, and repeals Colorado’s “Red Flag” ERPO law in it’s entirety. |
HB26-1008 | CPW Recreation Expansion (Hunting Access Watch) | Neutral | Lukens Taggart Marchman Rich | House Agriculture | • House Committee Hearing 2/23 at 1:30PM HCR 0107 | Expands CPW’s role in planning and managing outdoor recreation statewide, including how people access public land, how crowded areas are managed, and how different outdoor uses are balanced under the state’s long-term recreation strategy. Hunters are one of many user groups affected. |
TBD | Constitutional Carry of Handgun | Support | TBD | TBD | • Not Yet Filed | Enact the legal right to carry a handgun without a permit in public. |
