Panelists will include Colorado Senate President John Morse and state Rep. Rhonda Fields, both of whom are proposing bills to limit access to firearms during this year's legislative session. Others on the panel Tuesday evening include U.S. Rep. Doug Lamborn, Weld County District Attorney Ken Buck, and the president of the Colorado Association of Chiefs of Police.
Topics to be discussed include universal background checks for firearm purchases, what to do about assault weapons, and mental health issues.
