Republican Senator Greg Brophy says 60, 61 and 101 will shut down higher education and lead to TABOR repeal
From the Fort Morgan Times:
Colorado would lose roughly half of its general fund revenue, which would mean that almost all of what is left would have to go to K-12 education, said State Sen. Greg Brophy.

“Higher education would just be done,” Brophy said.
