On Wednesday, Jan. 20, Colorado State University (CSU) formally announced their draft proposal to prohibit firearms on all CSU campuses, according to a release by the National Rifle Association (NRA).
Exempt from the ban would be weapons used by law enforcement, military and the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC).
This draft policy will be brought up for consideration at the CSU Board of Governors meeting on Tuesday, February 23.
The NRA sais that last year, the CSU Board of Governors drafted the policy knowing that it would violate the Colorado state firearm preemption law and the Colorado Uniform Shall-Issue Concealed Carry Law. Current state law strictly regulates the carry or transport of firearms on schools, colleges and universities.
