Colorado bill would publicly finance elections in state
A House bill introduced by Rep. Richard Lamm would create public financing for Colorado elections under strict supervision. A three member State Election Board including the secretary of state and party chairmen would distribute funds based on a formula tied to taxpayers and petition signatures. Candidates could not accept contributions and would be limited to two thousand dollars of personal spending, with independents and minor parties receiving funds per petition signatures and prior vote totals.

A U S district court judge ruled Montana's entire abortion statute unconstitutional, leaving the state with no prohibition against abortions. The decision cites the Texas and Georgia rulings and orders the legislature to tailor a new law to Supreme Court guidelines. Mary Doe of Missoula, represented by the ACLU, filed the suit.
