CO SB271

Repeals Part 3 of Article 13.3 of Title 8, Colorado Revised Statutes, which contained provisions for studying and planning a paid family and medical leave program

The repealed provisions established a Family and Medical Leave Implementation Task Force with 13 voting members representing workers, employers, insurers, labor economists, and policy organizations

The original statute required the Department of Labor and Employment to conduct feasibility studies on third-party administration and contract with at least three paid leave experts by October 1, 2019

The task force was required to submit final recommendations for a paid family and medical leave program to the legislature by January 8, 2020

These provisions are now obsolete because Colorado's paid family and medical leave program (FAMLI) was subsequently established and began paying benefits on January 1, 2024
