ColoradoAdopted2027-01-012026-07-08Colorado's SB 26-189 replaced the earlier SB 24-205 and substantially narrowed scope. Effective Jan 1, 2027, it covers only 'consequential decisions' (education, employment, financial/lending, government services, healthcare, housing, insurance, legal services, essential services). The original SB 24-205 covered nearly every algorithmic decision; the rewritten statute removed most of the catch-all scope and shifted enforcement to the AG. The original SB 24-205 is repealed and should not be cited as live law.Primary source ↗
