DENVER ~ In a recent presentation to the Joint Budget Committee, the Governor's Office of State Planning and Budgeting shared its economic forecast for Colorado.

Despite facing challenges in the national economy, Governor Polis expressed optimism about Colorado's economic stability.

According to OSPB's projections, revenue is expected to fall $15.3 million below the TABOR cap in Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-26. This is a significant improvement from the previous forecast in March, which predicted a shortfall of $229 million below the TABOR cap. Additionally, TABOR surpluses of $469.9 million in FY 2026-27 and $52.3 million in FY 2027-28 are anticipated.
However, it should be noted that the lower TABOR surplus in 2027-28 is due to an expected increase in inflation. Despite this potential setback, the overall outlook for Colorado's economy remains positive.
