The 2025 legislative session concluded with several substantial business wins:

✓ Labor Peace Act was preserved through our coalition’s successful advocacy

✓ Construction defects reform enacted to stimulate condominium development

✓ Nuclear energy is declared clean energy, positioning Weld County for development opportunities

✓ Oil and gas stability maintained with no significant new regulatory burdens

✓ Regulatory reform audits were established to address permitting delays and excessive regulation

However, significant challenges remain on the horizon, including:

⚠️ A potential 2026 ballot initiative requiring “just cause” for employee termination

⚠️ Pending Workers’ Compensation expansion awaiting potential veto

⚠️ Implementation of Colorado’s first-in-nation artificial intelligence law

⚠️ Expected renewed attempts to eliminate business tax incentives
