The Colorado Senate on April 8, 2025, passed House Bill 12‑40 with a recorded vote of 22–12. The bill, introduced on the floor by Senator Winter, is described in the transcript title as concerning protections for tenants who use housing subsidies.
Senator Winter moved the bill on third reading and requested permission to offer a third-reading amendment. The senator described the change as a "technical amendment" (L11), which the body granted permission to offer; L11 was adopted, and a second technical amendment (L12) was also adopted on the floor.
The final floor vote was recorded as 22 ayes and 12 noes (0 absent, 1 excused). Named senators recorded as no votes in the transcript include Senators Rich, Kirkmeyer, Pelton B, Mullica, Simpson, Bright, Carson, Catlin, Pelton R and Baisley; the tally is recorded on the floor as 22–12.
The transcript includes the bill title and adoption of technical amendments but does not include the full statutory text, fiscal note, or effective date in the excerpt provided. The record shows the amendments were technical adjustments (Senator Winter described one change as shifting a numeric citation from 7 to 27) and that the amendments passed by recorded or voice votes before final passage.
