STATEMENT OF SENATE PRESIDENT GROFF ON AMENDMENT 41 RULING


DENVER—In response to the ruling today on Amendment 41 by the Colorado Supreme Court, Senate President Peter Groff (D-Denver) released the following statement:

As a lawmaker I respect the ruling of our state’s highest court, though I am disappointed that we are back where we started. However, SB07-210, which I sponsored with Senator McElhany last year, created a commission that may now begin to answer some of the questions that surround the ambiguity of Amendment 41.
