HB 26-1401

HB 26-1401 is a Colorado state bill that requires $75 million to be transferred from an unclaimed property trust fund to the general fund and housing development grants by June 30, 2026. This transfer will also end future transfers to the adult dental fund starting July 1, 2026. Additionally, it allocates a specific amount of money for health care policy and financing from the general fund instead of the adult dental fund for the fiscal year 2026-2027. The bill has been signed into law, meaning these financial transfers will take place as scheduled.
