Let’s Beat the Semi-Auto Ban in the Senate!


Democratic Senator Nick Hinrichsen, who will be voting on the 2025 Semi-Auto Gun Ban (SB25-003) on Friday, represents one of the most competitive Senate Districts in the State of Colorado. Last week, we sent the following graphic and text message to tens of thousands of pro-gun voters living in his district:

"This is Huey with the Colorado State Shooting Association (your official state association of the NRA). Your State Senator Nick Hinrichsen (D) will vote on the 2025 Semi-Auto Firearm Ban soon!


"If passed, this bill will ban the most sold rifle in America, all modern sporting rifles, most popular home defense firearms among the general public, all top-rated home defense rifles for women, and numerous commonly owned pistol and shotgun models.


"Nick Hinrichsen won election to the State Senate in your district by less than 3 percentage points in 2022. If he wants to win again in 2026, he simply can’t afford to crusade against our rights, and we need your help ensuring he knows that.


"Call and email Senator Nick Hinrichsen and express your opposition to this horrible infringement of our rights, making sure to explain that you will be voting him out of office if he votes in favor of banning common-use firearms.


"Phone: (303) 866-4878

Email: nick.hinrichsen.senate@coleg.gov


"Stay up-to-date on the fight to defend 2A in Colorado by subscribing to our email list here: https://mailchi.mp/cssa/sign_up


"Together, we will preserve our right to keep and bear arms in the state of Colorado."

Since sending that message out, we’ve received word from a credible source that Senator Hinrichsen plans to vote NO on this bill in its current form. For that reason, we want to replicate this winning strategy in every competitive Senate District held by a Democrat, and we need your support to make it happen.


You can contribute to this effort by making a donation to our Constituent Outreach Fund. Every $50 we raise in this fund covers the cost of contacting 500 pro-gun constituents living in vulnerable Democrat Senate Districts. If we can flip just 6 Democrat Senators to vote NO, the Semi-Auto Ban may be nothing more than a piece of failed legislation by the end of the week.


If you believe as we do that the 2025 Semi-Auto Gun Ban is one of the worst examples of government overreach ever attempted in Colorado, consider donating whatever you can spare (be it $5 or $500) to our Constituent Outreach Fund, and help us secure Colorado’s future as a free state with a well-armed citizenry.


Sincerely,


Huey Laugesen

Help us Overturn the Guns & Ammo Tax!


We have retained Cooper & Kirk PLLC, a Washington D.C-based law firm with extensive experience defending the Second Amendment in the courts, to represent us as we further explore a legal challenge to overturn Prop. KK, the recently enacted 6.5% excise tax on all firearms and ammunition.


Litigation is not cheap. In order to zealously advance our arguments in court and improve our chances of ultimate success, we need all hands on deck. You can help us fund the expense of bringing a lawsuit by donating to our Legal Fund.
