A Brief History of Colorado Health Care Reform
Colorado has had a long history of moving towards universal health care.
These are some significant dates in that timeline.
HB24-1075: Universal Health Care Analysis Bill Introduced!
In the first week of the Colorado 2024 legislative session, a new bill has been introduced to finally create a robust and detailed analysis of universal health care in Colorado!
Prime sponsor, Representative Karen McCormick has introduced HB24-1075 "Analysis of Universal Health-Care Payment System" into the Colorado legislature. A similar bill, HB23-1209, was introduced last year but ultimately fell victim to the legislative clock running out. By introducing the new, updated bill this early in the session (first week!) it is much more likely to make it through the legislative process. The goal is to have this bill get through both the House and Senate by March 25th, ahead of the "long bill" that tends to delay remaining legislative work.
