Colorado House Democratic leaders say they plan to reintroduce telecommunications law reforms as early as next week, believing they have tweaked the legislation enough to get it over the hurdles that killed similar bills the past four years.

“We’ve been working since November with over 50 individuals, coalition partners and eight sponsors to develop what I call legislation that will change the landscape in Colorado,” Williams said. “What we’ve tried to do is find a good balance ... Everybody has had an opportunity and has had to give and take.” Read the article in the Denver Business Journal here.
