Yesterday marked the end of the 30-day period for Governor Polis to sign into law the bills that were passed during the 2023 legislative session. We are thrilled to tell you that all of our top priority bills have been signed into law. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below you will find updates on the policy priorities we shared prior<\/a> to the legislative session focused on advancing educational equity, youth and racial justice in Colorado, and making our schools and communities safer and more supportive.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We would be remiss if we didn\u2019t, once again, thank the many advocates, partners, and policy makers we worked alongside to bring these policies to fruition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parents, educators and community leaders participated in listening sessions to identify needs and policy solutions, engaged with lawmakers, testified before committees and shared their experiences with members of the media. Hundreds of advocates sent thousands of emails to policymakers and 27 shared their lived experiences in testimony before committees nearly 60 times. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These impactful policy changes will mean more and better support for Colorado students and educators. They represent steps toward safer and more supportive schools and communities for all Coloradans. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
