2020 CO Senatorial race: on Gun Control


Cory Gardner: Opposed background checks gun show and online sales

Q: Enact more restrictive gun legislation?

Corey Gardner: No. "Strong supporter of Second Amendment rights." Keep "guns out of the hands of criminals," but opposed background checks for gun sales at gun shows and online.

John Hickenlooper: Yes. "Will fight for comprehensive, common-sense policies to tackle gun violence," including universal background checks, restoring assault weapons ban, and magazine limits.

Alice Madden: Gun safety in the wake of school shootings

Also important to Madden is gun safety, especially in the wake of the STEM school shooting. One of her sons who used to be a wildlife firefighter is now a public-school teacher, "and I never thought I'd be in the position where I'd be more worried about him in that position than when he was putting out raging fires."
