Colorado Republicans Push Back Against Controversial Gun Control Law

Hey there, folks! Colorado Republicans are firing back against the state’s latest gun control law, raising concerns about its constitutionality. The law, signed by Democratic Gov. Jared Polis, requires individuals to jump through hoops to purchase semi-automatic rifles with detachable magazines. You'd need a special card from law enforcement and complete a state-approved firearm education course. Sounds like a lot of hassle, right? Republican lawmakers in Colorado are so fired up about this that they've sent a letter to U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi, asking for federal intervention. Bondi doesn’t seem to be messing around either – she recently launched a Second Amendment Task Force to protect gun owners from government overreach. The DOJ is already investigating how the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department handles concealed handgun license applications. Pro-gun groups in Colorado are also getting in on the action, collecting signatures for petitions urging Bondi to take a closer look at the new law. They argue that it unfairly burdens law-abiding citizens and restricts their Second Amendment rights. The law won’t go into effect until August 2026, but the fight is already heating up. Stay tuned, folks – it looks like things are about to get interesting in the battle for gun rights in Colorado.
