Got another reply from Representative Chris Holbert. I like him:
"Thank you for your email and your concern for the Second Amendment.
Please note that I have already voted "No" on the so-called "gun
control" bills and I will continue to do so.
The Second Amendment is our defense against tyranny. I will not
negotiate with your Rights under the Constitution, which means that I
will not compromise on the Second Amendment.
The House will vote on HB-1224, HB-1226, HB-1228, and HB-1229 after we
convene at 10:00 a.m. Monday morning. The final, "Third Reading," vote
is a recorded vote. Unless absent or previously excused, each of the
65 Representatives in the House will either push the red "No" button
or the green "Yes" button. There is no "present" vote alternative in
our state legislature. Thirty-three is the number of votes required to
pass a bill through the House. Anything less and the bill fails.
You're always welcome to come to your Capitol Building and watch the
proceedings from the House gallery. Doors should open by 9:00 a.m. One
public entrance is located at the north end of the Capitol at Colfax
Avenue. On the north side of the complex, go UP the granite steps and
enter at the First floor. The second public entrance is located at the
south end of the Capitol at 14th Avenue. On the south side of the
complex, enter BELOW the granite steps and enter at the Basement
level.
If you can't make it to the Capitol and you have Comcast cable
television service, then you may also be able to watch us on the
"Colorado Channel" on Comcast 165. You can also watch or listen to
proceedings on the House Chambers online at:

It is an honor and privilege to serve in our Colorado House of Representatives.
Respectfully yours,
- Chris
