Colorado Politics: Surrounded by more than a hundred supporters, civil rights commissioners and the staff of Colorado’s civil rights agency outside the state Capitol, Gov. John Hickenlooper Tuesday signed into law the bill that keeps the agency on course for the next nine years.
House Bill 1256 reauthorizes both the Division of Civil Rights and the Colorado Commission on Civil Rights until 2027 and makes minor changes in its appointment structure.
