What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Colorado has long-standing laws that govern how state and local officials interact with federal immigration authorities. A ballot measure, Amendment 81, is currently being considered which would amend the state constitution regarding these interactions. If passed, Amendment 81 would require law enforcement to notify U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents about individuals charged with specific offenses within 72 hours of charges being filed.

The measure seeks to establish whether voters are comfortable with current protections and restrictions regarding immigration enforcement. It would apply to individuals charged with either a crime of violence or any other new offense, if the person had previously been convicted of a felony.
