Governor and lawmakers clash over Colorado funding bill
A sharp GOP rift in Colorado surfaced as the Senate opened a week of the 1973 session. A finance bill creates a trust fund for federal revenue sharing, countering Gov. John Love’s push to place the funds in the general fund. Lawmakers seek higher education aid while the governor backs a separate homestead exemption for homeowners and renters. The debate includes a revenue sharing trust fund, education spending targets, and a proposed five member Environment Board. two income tax measures were also introduced to raise deductions and allow corporate dividend subtraction.
