One Colorado, the state’s leading advocacy organization for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer Coloradans and their families, released the following statement this morning from Executive Director Daniel Ramos on the Senate’s changes to the Colorado Civil Rights Division and Commission:

“While we appreciate the Senate’s efforts to improve the bill that came out of the Senate Judiciary Committee, we remain concerned the bill as it stands will not adequately serve Coloradans who bring claims of discrimination and wish to seek justice. We encourage the Governor, House, and Senate to continue working to pass a bill that will continue an effective Colorado Civil Rights Division and Commission.”
