The National Rifle Association has spent an additional $250,000 in support of recall efforts against two Colorado state Democrats, campaign spending reports revealed.
The latest spending is a roughly $141,000 increase from the NRA’s previous spending on the recall efforts, according to The Denver Post.
Colorado senate President John Morse (D) and state Sen. Angela Morse (D) face a recall election next week after supporting legislation that tightened the state’s gun laws.
New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s (I) Mayors Against Illegal Guns and other pro-gun control groups have also spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to counter the NRA’s spending.
The recall election for Morse and Giron is Sept. 10.
