Many of the bills still need final approval from Governor Jared Polis before they can become law, including measures that would ease the formation of workers' unions and increase safety measures in ride-sharing operations. As Coloradans await the governor's decisions, Hannah Metzger offered a rundown of some of the legislation passed regarding firearms, reproductive health care, LGBTQ rights, filling vacancies and more.
And Coloradans aren't waiting for Polis's decisions to share opinions on the Westword Facebook post. Says Kati:
What a list of respectful, common-sense laws. I wish our national government worked like this!Responds Guillermo:
Communism and totalitarianism at its finest. Well done, Colorado.Adds Morgan:
So, the Dems passed gun suppression legislation during a fascist takeover of the federal government, supported gender fantasy/mental illness in the form of gender identity disorder encouragement and attacking the First Amendment rights of non-gender ideologues, and protected infanticide. Did they do anything that wasn't evil?Counters Lauren:
The gun nuts aren't doing anything about the fascist takeover anyway. As a matter of fact, they have grown quite fond of the fascist takeover.Adds Scott:
To those complaining about the gun control bill, what is a practical need for these specific pieces of equipment? Especially considering the history of tragedies in our state.Offers Cameron:
Yay! A bunch of ridiculous far left-wing bullshit. Legislature giving zero fucks about the people of its state for three decades….Responds Shayne:
Brilliant! It's not if truth prevails, it when truth prevails. Thank you, Colorado.And Ryan concludes:
Well, Westword, if you would have been covering all the BS the legislature was doing instead of the weekly anti-Trump protest, maybe the citizens would be more informed.What do you think of the Colorado Legislature's most recent session...and the possibility of a special session coming up?
