Incoming Colorado House Majority leader Alec Garnett says he will re-introduce “red flag” gun legislation next session.

The bill would allow involuntary treatment for mentally ill persons and allow a judge to temporarily remove that person’s firearms until mental health is restored.  

“It’s about saving lives,” Garnett said.
