At a Senate floor session, lawmakers read into the record a group of bills covering civil‑rights protections tied to immigration status, repeal of the Title Insurance Commission, school emergency epinephrine administration, updates to the Colorado Code of Military Justice, incentives for data center development and measures to speed wireless telephone infrastructure deployment.

The introductions — brief, without extended debate — were followed by a gubernatorial message submitting two reappointments to the Colorado Health Facilities Authority board of directors and the president’s announcement that Senate Joint Resolution 18 had been signed. Majority Leader Gonzales moved to adjourn and the Senate recessed until the next scheduled floor session.

Why it matters: The bills announced touch multiple policy areas overseen by different committees and could affect civil‑rights enforcement, insurance regulation, school health protocols, military code administration, utility and grid planning for large computing facilities, and broadband/wireless buildout. The governor’s board reappointments shape the membership of the Colorado Health Facilities Authority, which issues tax‑exempt financing for health‑care projects.

Committee references: The transcript places short committee captions near the bill introductions, including the phrases "State, Veterans and Military Affairs," "Business, Labor and Technology," "Health and Human Services," and "Transportation and Energy."

Governor’s message — Health Facilities Authority reappointments

The transcript contains a message submitted by Gov. Jared Polis that reappoints two members to the Colorado Health Facilities Authority board of directors: Jessica Klotch of Louisville (unaffiliated) and Anne Erickson of Centennial (Democrat). The message states the appointments are effective July 1, 2025, with terms expiring June 30, 2029. The transcript presents the governor’s text as a submitted message; it does not show a Senate confirmation vote in the provided excerpt.

Signed resolution and adjournment

The Senate president announced that "the president has signed Senate Joint Resolution 18" during the floor session. The record does not provide the text of SJR 18 or a vote tally for its passage in this excerpt. Later, Majority Leader Gonzales moved that the Senate adjourn until Monday, April 7, at 10 a.m.; the motion was put, and the president announced the ayes had it and ordered the adjournment.

What the transcript does not show

The provided excerpt does not include bill texts, committee reports, fiscal notes, floor debate, vote tallies on the introduced bills, committee referrals explicitly tied to each bill beyond the short committee captions, or any Senate confirmation votes for the governor’s reappointments. Where the record lacked specifics (votes, referral orders, bill numbers beyond the captions as read), the article states that such details were not specified in the transcript excerpt.

Next steps and likely follow‑up

Introduced bills typically receive formal referral to committee and are scheduled for hearings where fiscal notes, testimony and amendment activity occur. The transcript excerpt documents initial introduction on the floor and the governor’s message; tracking the bills will require checking the Senate calendar and committee schedules for hearings, referral orders and fiscal information.
