What this bill is (purpose)

SB 25-082 is the annual enactment/compilation bill that adopts the Colorado Revised Statutes (CRS) incorporating session laws enacted in 2024 into the official statutory code. These "enactment of CRS" bills are routine, omnibus measures used to codify, organize, and make technical or editorial corrections to statutes so the published CRS reflects laws passed during the prior legislative session(s).

Key features and typical provisions

The bill text is not included here; however, enactment bills of this type generally include the following types of changes:

  • Codification of laws passed in 2024 into the official structure and numbering of the CRS.
  • Technical, non‑substantive edits for grammar, cross‑citation, punctuation, and formatting.
  • Conforming amendments to ensure internal consistency across statutory sections (renumbering or harmonizing cross-references).
  • Repeals of transient or obsolete sections as directed by session laws.
  • Placement of newly enacted statutes into the appropriate titles, articles, and sections of the CRS.
  • Standard effective‑date language and any required savings clauses for transitioned provisions.

Because these bills are typically housekeeping in nature, they usually do not change policy intent from what the original session laws established.

Who is affected

  • State agencies and officials (administrative codes and enforcement rely on the codified CRS).
  • Courts, attorneys, and legal researchers who use the CRS as the authoritative statutory reference.
  • Members of the public and regulated entities who consult statutes for rights and obligations—impact is indirect, as substance generally follows the session laws already enacted in 2024.

Legislative and procedural notes

  • Passed both chambers with no amendments noted during floor readings—indicative of noncontroversial, technical nature.
    • Senate: Introduced 2025-01-23; Passed 2nd and 3rd readings (no amendments); signed by President of the Senate 2025-03-04.
    • House: Assigned to Judiciary; referred unamended; Passed 2nd and 3rd readings (no amendments); signed by Speaker 2025-03-04.
  • Sent to Governor 2025-03-04; Governor signed into law 2025-03-14.
  • The bill’s effective date is typically specified within the bill text (often upon signature or on a stated date). The enactment date here is the Governor’s signature date (3/14/2025); consult the bill text for any section‑specific effective dates or transitional provisions.
