Tell Colorado Governor Polis to Veto SB 5 and Protect the Labor Peace Act

Senate Bill 5 would dismantle key protections in Colorado’s Labor Peace Act by eliminating the second election required to approve a union agreement. This two-step process has served Colorado well for more than 80 years, ensuring that workers’ voices are clearly heard before unionization efforts move forward.

Over 70% of Coloradans support the current two-vote system because it promotes fairness and protects employees from coercion—while also maintaining a competitive business climate.

SB 5 has passed the legislature and is now headed to Governor Polis’ desk.

Take action now and urge Governor Polis to veto SB 5!

Preserving the Labor Peace Act is essential to protecting small businesses, their employees, and the future of Colorado’s economy.
