DENVER ~ In a ceremony held in the Governor's Office today, Governor Jared Polis signed several bills into law. The first bill, HB25-1053, also known as the Landowner Immunity for Emergency Access to Property, was sponsored by Representatives Tisha Mauro and Ron Weinberg, as well as Senators Janice Marchman and Mark Baisley. This bipartisan bill aims to remove barriers for emergency responders during times of crisis.
Governor Polis emphasized the importance of this bill in ensuring the safety of both responders and citizens. He stated, "Our brave firefighters and emergency responders put their lives on the line every day responding to emergencies and disasters...this new bipartisan law removes barriers to ensure that in times of crisis, our brave first responders can get where they are needed quickly and safely."
The governor also signed HB25-1002, or the Medical Necessity Determination Insurance Coverage bill. This bipartisan legislation was sponsored by Representatives Kyle Brown and Lindsay Gilchrist, as well as Senators Judy Amabile and Byron Pelton. According to Governor Polis, this new law will provide more transparency into how health insurers decide what services are covered and why.

He explained that this will benefit both providers and patients by reducing uncertainty and increasing transparency in mental health coverage. "This new law reduces uncertainty and increases transparency in mental health coverage to ensure Coloradans get the care they need," said Governor Polis.
In addition to these two bills, Governor Polis also signed several others into law administratively. These include HB25-1129 - Department of Corrections Peer Behavioral Health Services Reentry Program; SB25-038 - Wildlife Damage Protection of Personal Information; SB25-046 - Local Government Tax Audit Confidentiality Standards; and SB25-052 - Railroad Investigative Report Confidentiality.
These bills were sponsored by various legislators from both parties including Representatives Gretchen Rydin, Lorena Garcia, Julie McCluskie, Ty Winter, and Rick Taggart, as well as Senators Dylan Roberts, Marc Catlin, Jeff Bridges, Cathy Kipp, Faith Winter, Nick Hinrichsen, and Alex Valdez.
With the signing of these bills into law, Governor Polis hopes to improve the safety and well-being of Coloradans while also promoting transparency and efficiency in government processes.
