Democrats in Colorado have been trying to pass a labor law that would make it easier to unionize, but it’s one of the major things still undone with one week to go in the legislative session. Then, DOGE lays off EPA staff, joining hundreds of Coloradans looking for jobs right now because their gigs at the federal government have ended. Plus, a court demands that banned books be put back on the shelf, but a conservative school district fights the order. And, new info on reservations to visit Rocky Mountain National Park and new seasons announced by two big Front Range theater companies.
