Thanks to the hard work of so many across Colorado Katie's Law, SB 09-241, passed the General Assembly! After being referred to a conference committee on the final day of the session, Katie's Law passed both chambers of the legislature with overwhelming bipartisan support.
On Thursday, May 21, 2009 Governor Ritter signed SB 09-241 into law.
"We created legislation that is going to save people's lives," Tipton said by telephone, as legislators and media gathered in the capitol's West Foyer to watch Gov. Bill Ritter ink the new law. "I couldn't be more pleased or excited to see this bill go through."
