Job Killer Alert: Key Committee to Hear Environmental Permitting Bill

On Monday, April 15, House Bill 1330 will be heard in the House Finance Committee. This bill would add layers of new complex regulations to obtain environmental and construction permits, intentionally creating costly barriers to industry. It would make Colorado’s already-problematic permitting system even worse, creating red tape that will deter economic growth and drive companies out of Colorado.

In a recent survey done by the Colorado Chamber, almost half of business leaders (48%) identified the state’s regulatory climate as the top business concern. Mandating more rulemaking and moving the goal post on businesses yet again will keep Colorado on the wrong trajectory.

We want Colorado to be a leading state for businesses to invest and create jobs. HB 1330 and other job killers continue to threaten Colorado’s economic standing. The House Finance Committee needs to hear this message from the business community.
