COLORADO, USA — Colorado voters have passed a proposed statewide paid family and medical leave insurance program, according to the latest projections by The Associated Press.
Proposition 118 was meant to provide up to 12 weeks of paid family and medical leave starting in 2024, with employees and employers splitting the premium 50/50 starting in 2023, funding the program one year before it was implemented.
Democrats in Colorado’s state legislature tried and failed to approve a similar measure during the 2020 legislative session.
There were 11 statewide issues on the 2020 ballot.
