Aren't they supposed to vote on it on the 7th? Why hold a rally after the fact?

The Senate votes on the 7th. If it passes, it goes to the House.

Yeah but this bill really has to end in the Senate, it's sure pass in the House.

**Apologies, I was a day off on my dates**

Any word on today's activity? I tried looking for an update online just now but so far I've only found the article that .455_Hunter posted.

Colorado (Democrat) Senate Majority Whip Hinrichsen said he would vote ?NO?

Unless amended. He will support outlawing any sort of bump stock or rapid fire trigger device.

Didn’t one of the sponsors pull his name from it? Said he didn’t know what he was signing up for? What a crock. Either way it’s good though. He either got enough pressure that he flipped, or EveryTwit did missprepresent and people pols will be less likely to sign up for it. I assume that Polis was leaning on people to keep this off his desk.

Good job Dudley?

God that sucks to say…

"Sen. Marc Snyder of Manitou Springs said he didn’t fully understand its effect when he agreed to attach his name to it."


Of the 23 Democrats in the chamber, 19 have either verbally committed to voting “yes” on the bill when asked by The Sun or have signaled they will support it by serving as cosponsors.

Two Democrats — Snyder and Sen. Nick Hinrichsen of Pueblo — say they can’t vote for the measure as is, while two more — Sens. Dylan Roberts and Kyle Mullica — haven’t said how they will vote on the legislation.

All 12 Republicans in the Senate are expected to vote against Senate Bill 3.

It takes 18 votes to pass a bill out of the Senate.

Looks like evertown and others are funded through USAID. Fantastic. Hopefully someone brings that up
