Legislative leaders gave a peek Tuesday at the fights coming to the Capitol, including a proposal to reform laws around unionizing, regulatory reform and efforts to patch a massive budget hole.

Raymond Gonzales, executive vice president of the Denver Metro Chamber of Commerce, shows the audience a short video presentation at the start of the annual Business Legislative Preview breakfast held at Denver Art Museum’s Sturm Grand Pavilion in Denver on Jan. 7, 2025. An advertisement for the Denver Art Museum’s Wild Things is seen in the background.

Though the bill is a priority for several Democratic lawmakers and their labor allies, business groups — including the chamber — are flatly opposed. That position was clear Tuesday morning. “This is not the overexpenditures of a runaway legislature, this is the changing demographics of our state,” McCluskie said at a news conference after the chamber event. “An older and grayer Colorado is putting much more pressure on long-term care services as well as the primary health care utilization of Medicaid.”

This year, McCluskie said, lawmakers are being told that their bills have an effective budget of “zero,” given the constraints and lack of capacity for more spending. But there may be room for trade-offs. Lundeen, citing his business experience, used the example of layoffs in the private sector resulting in leaner, more efficient operations. He also saw an opening for a “virtuous cycle” of pro-business regulatory changes that could lead to economic growth.
