NRA Pushing to Recall Colorado Lawmaker

For the first time in almost 2 decades, the National Rifle Association is attempting to coordinate the recall of a state legislator.

In specific, the NRA is targeting Colorado State Senate President John Morse for passing gun restriction legislation in his state. They have initiated a petition drive over legislation that was passed earlier this year requiring “universal” background checks on the sale of all firearms in the state along with a ban on ammunition magazines with a capacity exceeding 15 rounds.

As reported by CNN:

“the NRA Political Victory fund wrote to a “Second Amendment Supporter” in Colorado that “your NRA is coordinating a recall effort with the Basic Freedom Defense Fund to put Senator Morse on the ballot for a special election and vote him out of office.” (Emphasis the NRA’s.)
