HB 26-1293

House Bill 26-1293 updates the requirements for the ballot information booklet used by voters in Colorado. It removes outdated and unnecessary language from the booklet and streamlines its content to make it clearer and more modern. The bill also gets rid of old rules related to a specific fund that was no longer needed after 2010. Since the bill has been signed, these changes are now law and will affect how ballot booklets are created and distributed in future elections.
