Court Challenge Filed to Colorado Petition Law
Today, Colorado’s Independence Institute and a group of citizens involved in various initiative petition campaigns in the state filed suit in federal court seeking to overturn a state law that imposes new rules and restrictions on initiative petitions. The law was passed last year by a large, bipartisan majority of legislators.
Citizens in Charge Foundation has been working with those who brought the legal challenge. One plaintiff, Dennis Polhill, is a member of Citizens in Charge’s board of directors.
