Bill	Ballot Access for Candidates with Disabilities	The bill requires the general assembly, the secretary of state, and each political party to ensure that the caucus process or any future alternative process by which candidates may access the ballot that is accessible to persons with disabilities remains an option in the state. The bill specifies that the petition process is not a means of ballot access that is accessible to persons with disabilities. In addition, the bill requires that, within 6 months of the effective date of the bill, any person, upon request, must be able to participate in a precinct caucus or a party assembly with the use of a video conferencing platform that is accessible to persons with disabilities unless the precinct caucus or party assembly is held in a geographic location that lacks broadband internet service. When a precinct caucus or party assembly occurs in a geographic location that lacks broadband internet service, participation must be allowed by an alternative means such as a telephone conference. Any alternative means used by a political party must be accessible to persons with disabilities. The failure of a political party to make a reasonable effort to comply with the requirements in the bill constitutes discrimination on the basis of disability in violation of current law. Action taken pursuant to the bill does not limit or preclude any other available legal remedy.	us/states/co	Colorado General Assembly	2024A	HB 24-1067	Colorado HB 24-1067 (2024A)	bill		enacted	David Ortiz Faith Winter Larry Liston	9	16	4	2024-01-10T07:00:00+00:00	2024-04-04T06:00:00+00:00	openstates	ocd-bill/3aed86fc-1b1f-449e-8573-1370ff386ca0	https://leg.colorado.gov/bills/hb24-1067	8d9691918c061ff4a69c356cf131649bffa43986ad434cb2814c5df768f30d2b	2026-07-01	https://data.openstates.org/daily/2026-07-01/public.pgdump	2026-07-06	reported	legislation bill us-co
