"Colorado has stronger gun laws than many states, but still has significant room for improvement."
"In recent years, Nevada has made significant progress in its gun safety laws, but the state can still do much more to save lives from gun violence."
"While Oregon has enacted several basic gun safety laws, the state has significant room for improvement."
