Colorado’s legislators returned to the Capitol yesterday, answering the Governor’s call for a special session to address skyrocketing property taxes following voters rejection of Prop HH. Progressives criticized the initiative in part for offering insufficient aid to the third of Coloradans who rent rather than own. In the first hearing of the session, House legislators debated a bill to create a $30M rental relief fund administered by the Division of Housing in partnership with housing nonprofits.
