SB 17-234

Senate Bill 17-234 is a Colorado law that updates the reporting requirements for the Department of Human Services. It extends some existing reports indefinitely, removes others that were set to expire, and adds specific end dates for certain reports according to state rules. This bill affects how the Department of Human Services communicates information to the government about its activities and programs. Since it has been signed into law, these changes are now in effect and will guide future reporting by the department.
