Senate Bill 25-213, which has been signed into law, requires the state treasurer to transfer $842,346 from the general fund to a special fund dedicated to broadband infrastructure. This fund can be used to install broadband in correctional facilities, and the new law adds the Colorado territorial correctional facility to the list of eligible sites.
