Today we launch Sully’s Action Fund because we need to amplify Gun Violence Prevention Champions in #CO.
If we join our voices together, we can keep the conversation on #GVP front and center and build safer and healthier communities for us all.

I have been to their offices in Newtown and yesterday they came to my office to talk. If you don't know about this group read this. More to come. https://t.co/ruHXZuNiw9
Out of joy, terror. #GunViolence haunts us even in our state’s most joyous times
I’m glad it appears the victims will all survive. Unfortunately, what should've been a joyous memory for all will be haunted by trauma for too many
We must #EndGunViolence

Nearly 4.6 million children live in homes with unlocked and loaded guns.
In partnership with @AdCouncil we are launching a new PSA to #EndFamilyFire through safe gun storage and empower gun owners to take a role in preventing gun violence. Visit https://t.co/SMPiSTqJcx
.@Sully_720: “I want the people of Colorado to remember that I will never stop in my quest to save the life of another Coloradan from the public health crisis that is gun violence.”

CO Democrats are introducing legislation that will:
➡️ Keep our communities safe
➡️ Increase the minimum age for firearm purchases
➡️ Require a waiting period for firearm purchases
➡️ Allow survivors & their families to seek accountability against gun manufacturers

Colorado's Red Flag law is one of the best tools we have to keep our communities safe, but currently, it's drastically underused.
Our bill would expand & improve CO's Red Flag law, so we can prevent more tragedies & save lives.

Waiting periods reduce both homicide and suicide rates by preventing people from acting impulsively.
Delaying access to firearms allows for a more thorough background check and prevents guns from being in the hands of dangerous individuals.

Gun violence is the leading cause of death in young adults ages 18-20.
We’re introducing evidence-based, common sense legislation to raise the firearm purchasing age to 21, so we can prevent gun violence & save lives.

Right now, the gun industry in Colorado has special protections that shield it from almost all legal accountability.
Our bill would repeal the overly-broad immunity law & help survivors & their families get the accountability & justice they deserve.
