Email These Representatives to Fight Senate Bill 3
My name is Huey Laugesen, executive director of the Colorado State Shooting Association (CSSA), your official State Association of the NRA and dedicated advocate for the natural right of private firearm ownership in Colorado. We’re in a critical fight to stop Senate Bill 3 (SB25-003), the Semi-Auto Ban/Buy Back Your Rights bill. We need your immediate action to protect our Second Amendment freedoms.
On March 21, 2025, Senate Bill 3 passed its second reading on the House Floor. This Monday, March 24, the bill faces its third and final reading where every House Representative will have to go on record with their vote, rather than simply participate in a voice vote.
This legislation threatens to severely restrict your ability to purchase and own semiautomatic firearms—firearms that millions of law-abiding Coloradans rely on for self-defense, hunting, and competition shooting. To stop this bill in the House, we need 11 Democrats to vote “No.”
We’ve identified several Democratic representatives who might be persuaded to vote against this bill, and we need you to email them today. Please take a moment to respectfully demand them to vote “No” on SB25-003. Here are all of those representatives’ (and the Governor’s) email addresses in a simple format you can copy and paste into your “To” and “Bcc” lines to send one email to all of them:
To: Governorpolis@state.co.us
Bcc: Julie.Mccluskie.house@coleg.gov, shannon.bird.house@coleg.gov, yara.zokaie.house@coleg.gov, lisa.feret.house@coleg.gov, jacqueline.phillips.house@coleg.gov, amy.paschal.house@coleg.gov, meghan.lukens.house@coleg.gov, tisha.mauro.house@coleg.gov, sheila.lieder.house@coleg.gov, matthew.martinez.house@coleg.gov, bob.marshall.house@coleg.gov, regina.english.house@coleg.gov, katie.stewart.house@coleg.gov
If you have time to email each of them individually, please do so, as that could hit even closer to home.
When emailing, please explain why this bill threatens our constitutional rights, impacts law-abiding citizens, and could harm local businesses but would do nothing to address violent crime rates. For example, you might mention that very few crimes are committed with legally purchased firearms, and with rising crime rates, law-abiding citizens need access to ample self-defense options. We’re down to the wire, and your voice can make a difference!
While each of you reach out to these members, our team is contacting tens of thousands of gun owners, Second Amendment supporters, and hunters in each of these districts to amplify the pressure even more. Every $10 you send us before the vote tomorrow lets us engage 100 more Coloradans in this fight for our rights.
