DENVER - Governor Jared Polis released a statement following the Supreme Court’s decision that blocks certain preenforcement challenges and leaves the abortion ban in place for now.
“Colorado has a long history of protecting women’s reproductive freedom and we will continue to do so. Today’s misguided decision from the Supreme Court underscores the challenges that lay ahead. It’s worth considering by lawmakers and even Colorado voters whether we need additional protections or even a constitutional amendment so that no legislators or future governors could undermine our freedom.”
