What changed in the latest version
21 added · 17 removedPlain-language change summary
The recent amendments to Bill SB 25-233 focus on repealing the performance contract associated with the Colorado School of Mines. This change is significant because it eliminates a requirement for the legislature to appropriate funds to the school through specific contracts for several fiscal years. By removing these stipulations, the bill aims to simplify the funding process for the institution, potentially allowing for greater flexibility in how financial support is provided to the Colorado School of Mines.
