HCR 24-1004

House Concurrent Resolution 24-1004 is a bill in Colorado that would prevent someone from being elected as a state representative or senator if they were appointed to fill an empty seat and then tried to run for the next term. This affects people who have been appointed to these positions due to vacancies. The bill has been signed, meaning it's now official policy unless voters reject it by at least 55% in the 2024 general election.
