Rush opposes creating legal framework for prostitution. SB26-043 requires record keeping for firearm barrel sales. Rush objects to additional firearms regulations as Second Amendment infringement. Rush cited government employment in Colorado increasing 189% under current administration, three times faster than private employment.
