Legislation

During the 2013 and 2014 session, Dan Nordberg sponsored 13 bills, 6 of which were signed into law by Governor Hickenlooper.  Of the three bills signed into law in 2014, two aim to mitigate the possibility of a Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) by authorizing the state of Colorado to furnish data outlining the negative impact a BRAC would have on Colorado, and improve collaboration between federal and state policymakers.  Another law eliminates income tax for non-resident emergency service workers, thus removing financial deterrents for out of state individuals and businesses lending aid in times of declared disasters.

In 2013, three of Dan Nordberg's proposed bills were signed into law.  One bill ensured aid received by military families remains tax free.  Another bill authorized a study to determine the impact of human trafficking in Colorado so that legislative solutions could be procured.  The final measure requires regulators to notify legislators when they promulgate rules as a result of their legislation.

Other bills which did not pass would have:

Required a super-majority to create or increase fees
Authorized state audit of Colorado Health Insurance Exchange
Provided state tax deduction matching federal penalty for persons who fail to purchase health insurance, as mandated by the Affordable Care Act
Prohibited use of public assistance money at marijuana dispensaries
Strengthened 4th amendment rights by requiring law enforcement to furnish a warrant to search electronic data
