Secretary of State Jena Griswold Applauds the Signing of the Lobbyist Transparency Act into Law

Aurora, CO, May 20, 2019 – Today, Governor Jared Polis signed HB19-1248, the Lobbyist Transparency Act, into law. This bill, sponsored by Representative Mike Weissman, Representative Lisa Cutter and Senator Mike Foote, was one of Secretary of State Jena Griswold's priorities this year. The following statement can be attributed to Jena Griswold, Colorado's 39th Secretary of State:

"Increasing lobbyist disclosure requirements and stopping attorneys from hiding their lobbying activity will help the public, the media, and legislators know who is trying to influence lawmakers' votes. This is an important step in shining light on special interests' and the well-connected's influence on Colorado politics."
