We Got Options. Revenue Options, That Is.

While state leaders have been doing a decent job mitigating the impact of cuts on Colorado families, the fact is they've only been working with limited options. And it's time they look at the other side of the ledger: revenue.

COFPI put together this list of options that the legislature could pursue in a special session or into the future.

Likewise, Legislative Council compiled this list of sales and use tax exemptions for the Commission on Long Term Fiscal Stability.

These resources provide a roadmap to Colorado's revenue options, a roadmap that would get us back on stronger footing, make sure the budget isn't balanced on the backs of any one community, and help strenghten investment in our future.
