Senate lays over HJR 10 26 honoring former Gov. Roy Romer until April 13

The Colorado Senate voted to lay over House Joint Resolution 10 26, which would designate part of Interstate 25 as the Roy Romer Memorial Highway, until Monday, April 13, 2026, after Majority Leader Weissman moved to delay consideration.

The motion to lay over was offered by Majority Leader Weissman, who said, “I move that HJR 10 26 lay over until this coming Monday April 13.” The presiding officer then put the motion to a voice vote; Weissman responded “Aye,” and the Chair announced, “The aye has it,” recording that HJR 10 26 will be taken up on April 13, 2026.

The resolution was introduced earlier in the session by the Clerk as "House Joint Resolution 10 26 by Representatives Valdez and Duran and Senator Rodriguez, concerning recognizing the service of former Governor Roy Romer and in connection therewith acknowledging the dedication of a portion of I‑25 as the Roy Romer Memorial Highway." No debate or amendment on the resolution was recorded in the provided transcript.

By laying the resolution over, the Senate postponed formal consideration to its next scheduled session on Monday, April 13; the transcript does not record a roll-call tally or any dissenting voices on the layover motion. The resolution’s sponsors named in the introduction were Representatives Valdez and Duran and Senator Rodriguez.

The Senate will return on Monday, April 13, 2026, at 10:00 a.m., when HJR 10 26 may be considered further.
