Governor Jared Polis just vetoed three progressive bills — one to stop companies from using your online data to set prices or wages, another to reform unfair arbitration clauses, and a third to ban single-use restaurant plastics. Polis argued the pricing bill was too broad, the arbitration bill too vague, and the plastic ban should be handled locally — since cities are already tackling it.

Colorado’s Childcare Pay Gap

Colorado’s push for universal preschool has expanded access, but early childhood teachers still earn just $18.50 an hour—far below the $26 needed to live comfortably. While other states like Oklahoma and New Mexico have linked preschool funding to teacher pay and living wages, Colorado’s infrastructure is ready; what’s missing is bold legislative action to ensure educators earn a living wage. With rising costs and a statewide workforce crisis, the state legislature has a critical window to act—before families and teachers are left behind.
