For a third week in a row we heard from a large number of folks in favor of
SB17-099 to join the National Popular Vote consortium. This bill and
SB17-095, to repeal the death penalty, both died in committee on Wednesday and will not be heard by the full Senate.
Also this week we heard from a number of folks opposed to SB17-035. This is a bill that would increase the penalty from a class 2 misdemeanor to a class 6 felony for tampering with oil and gas equipment. Since the bill passed through committee and will head to the full Senate, please let me know what you think.
There was a very controversial debate on the floor over
SB17-120 that would require peace officers in Colorado to be Un
ited States citizens. I voted "no" on the bill because I didn't think this was necessary and the Council of Police Chiefs opposed the bill. Nevertheless, it passed through the Senate and will now head to the House for their consideration.
