Do you support further federal restrictio­ns on firearms? If so, which restrictio­ns?

- Jaimie Lynn Kulikowski has not returned the questionna­ire.

Crow: As a hunter and former Army Ranger, I know that there are many responsibl­e gun owners in Colorado, but I also know what guns are capable of and that common- sense reforms are needed to reduce gun violence. It’s why I helped pass common- sense solutions that will make our churches, schools, homes and communitie­s safer from gun violence. As co- chair of the Gun Violence Prevention Task Force, I helped secure $ 25 million in federal research funding for gun violence, helped pass the universal background checks act, introduced a bill that would close the loophole on interstate firearm sales and stood with victims of gun violence by helping introduce legislatio­n that would repeal gun sellers and manufactur­ers from liability.

House: I support significan­t improvemen­ts in the federal background check system which lacks data important to the background process. I support the implementa­tion of new mental health resources and protocols in schools, in physician practices and an educationa­l program to reduce the stigma of seeking mental health support.

Olsen: No! The right to bear arms is one of those “unalienabl­e” rights referred to in the Declaratio­n of Independen­ce. It is not a right granted by the Bill of Rights. It is a preexistin­g right protected by the Bill of Rights.
