CAR: Legislative Update

Senate Bill-177 “Construction Defects”
CAR Position: Support. CAR staff had hoped to see the bill move forward by now. Although it was introduced on Feb. 10 it hasn’t been scheduled for its first hearing on the Senate side because the Speaker of the House, Dickie Lee Hullinghorst opposes it. http://www.denverpost.com/Opinion Negotiations continue but there’s no reason to schedule the bill if the Speaker opposes it because she can make sure it goes to a “kill committee” for hearings. In the meantime, CAR’s call to action is ongoing. Please make sure that you have responded to it and encourage others to do so as well.
