I'm not the best with words, but borrowed your email as a template:
Members of the House State, Veterans, & Military Affairs Committee:
I am writing to advocate that the magazine ban repeal bill that has passed the Senate be heard by the ENTIRE House of Representatives. This opportunity rests entirely on this committee. This issue has been very contentious as proved by the historic backlash against the government officials who did not listen to their constituency and voted for this bill originally. These bills led to historic recalls, including against the then sitting State Senate President. Further, 60 of our 64 state sheriffs began a lawsuit against the state over the bills passed in the 2013 legislative session, and that lawsuit is still working its way through the courts. Based on these local examples, it appears that representation of the State, as a whole, not by a selected committee, is imperative.
Beyond Colorado's borders, the topic of the second amendment is also being broached. As examples: the resignation of the Director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF) after attempting to ban a common bullet; Florida now allowing people without concealed carry weapon permit holders to carry concealed during evacuation; and Arizona laws aimed at prohibiting the use of funds to enforce new federal firearm laws. These few examples serve as a barometer for the public's interest in the second amendment outside of Colorado.
Given the contention inside and outside of Colorado, Coloradans from all over the state, through their elected representatives, deserve to be represented in such an important topic as they are brought into our legislature. For true democracy to be had, the voice of all citizens must be heard. Representatives throughout the State must be allowed to hear the Bill and vote on this crucial bill.
Sincerely,
