Protecting TABOR refunds now an annual task of NFIB
The 2025 session of the Colorado General Assembly will see some new faces following the November 2024 Election, but some left-over initiatives from the last session are expected to return, such as:
- Further attempts to hold general contractors responsible for payment of wages not paid by subcontractors.
- Attempts to change workers’ compensation policy to allow for benefits to minor dependents of laid off workers, and other policies creating strain on the Unemployment Trust Fund, and potentially raising employer premiums for Workers Compensation coverage.
- Further legislative action allowing interference by labor organizations into network delivery entities.
- Legislative authority allowing the Division of Insurance to further investigate a method to move Colorado to a single-payer state for health-care services.
- Attempts to pass legislation allowing retention of TABOR refund dollars.
- Weaken Colorado’s tort reform efforts for lawsuit reform.
