Great News Concerning the Four Colorado Anti-business Amendments

Thursday October 2nd, labor and business leaders came to an agreement to pull four anti-business amendments from the ballot.

With only a few hours left, before a 5pm deadline, labor and business leaders delivered letters to the Colorado Secretary of State withdrawing four amendments that would have negatively affected Colorado’s economy. To get the labor leaders to drop four anti-business amendments, business leaders had to promise to raise $3 million for labor campaigns for use in fighting three anti-union amendments on the ballot. The four anti-business amendments will still appear on the ballots however the votes will not be counted toward passing these new measures.
