COLORADO HOUSE BILL 1023

Governor Bill Owens signed HB06S-1023 into law on July 31, 2006. This bill has been called Restriction of Public Benefits. This is one bill from a package of legislation from the special session of the legislature on immigration issues.  HB 1023 requires state agencies to verify the lawful presence of all applicants for public benefits.
