Washington, D.C., November 6, 2018 - This evening, Jason Crow was elected to Congress in Colorado’s 6th Congressional District, defeating NRA favorite Rep. Mike Coffman. The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, which had made CO-06 one of the organization’s nine priority districts in the 2018 midterms, congratulated Crow on his hard-fought victory.
Kaylee Tyner, executive council member of Brady’s Team ENOUGH and student at Columbine High School, stated,
“For too long, Colorado has been represented by people more interested in the NRA’s support than in fighting the epidemic of gun violence that has touched our community firsthand. Today, that finally comes to an end. We know that Jason will be a strong champion for gun safety in Washington, and that he will be a role model for our entire state. Congratulations, Congressman-elect Crow!”
