We need to legalize all consumer fireworks in Colorado. All the states around Colorado have used our fireworks laws against us and to their advantage. Utah has just legalized aerial fireworks, and nebraska has changed their law, to legalize anything defined as a consumer firework. The problem is that you can come from another state, buy them legally, and shoot them legally, while Colorado citizens can only buy certain ones.
The current momentum triggered a request for a formal briefing from a state policy analyst. I am in the process of drafting a memo to outline the economic shifts occurring in neighboring states. This documentation will serve as the primary evidence for our upcoming legislative review.

Yes, let's legalize all consumer fireworks. This will create job opportunities, opportunities for the state to collect the tax to better the state and get better equipment to extinguish fires that are caused by camp fires and and mitigate our lands to a healthier standing.

Fireworks are fine to use if used responsibly and they are approved by the federal government. If Colorado legalize fireworks they can create jobs, create revenue, and be good for businesses.

Colorado and California aren't the same and Denver is better than this. Fix it.
