Other notable floor actions: AI transparency bill, plastics bill, multiple appropriations

Colorado House of Representatives · May 8, 2026

Summary

The House advanced several other measures on second reading: Senate Bill 189 on algorithmic decision‑making protections passed; SB171 (preproduction plastics) and multiple appropriations and committee reports were adopted; the House also advanced bills related to nonprofit payments, artist company structure, and post‑conviction relief procedures.

In addition to the day’s headline items, members disposed of a broad slate of bills on second reading.

Key actions included passage of SB189 (a consumer‑facing framework for algorithmic decision‑making technology), SB171 (clarifying disposal rules for pre‑production plastics), HB12‑74 (grant payment/performance rules for nonprofits), SB116 (property‑tax technical changes), and HB11‑38 (a retail theft prevention grant pilot). The House also passed SB115 (a narrow, limited second‑look/resentencing pathway for a small number of eligible incarcerated persons) after adopting several statutory clarifications and reporting amendments.

Committee reports from appropriations, judiciary, finance, business affairs and labor, and other panels were read and adopted on the floor. Members frequently emphasized that adopted bills would proceed to third reading on the special orders calendar for final passage.

What happens next: Most bills passed on second reading were placed on the calendar for third reading and final passage; implementing agencies will begin technical and rule coordination where statutory language requires.
