- Montezuma County sheriff opts out of administering new Colorado gun law
Montezuma County Sheriff Steven Nowlin announced his office will not administer Colorado's new gun law, Senate Bill 25-003, due to funding, staffing, and constitutional concerns. The law requires eligibility cards and safety courses for purchasing certain semiautomatic firearms, which Nowlin argues lacks necessary resources and conflates hunter education with firearm purchase requirements. Supporters claim the law aims to reduce mass shooting fatalities.
