Colorado Governor Enacts Gun Control Measures Following Mass Shooting

Colorado's governor signed four gun control bills aimed at reducing suicides, youth violence, and mass shootings, as well as allowing gun violence victims to sue the firearm industry. Gun rights groups have already sued to reverse two of the measures, including raising the buying age for any gun from 18 to 21 and establishing a three-day waiting period between the purchase and receipt of a gun. Republicans decried the bills as onerous encroachments on Second Amendment rights, while gun rights advocates pledged to reverse the measures.
