Colorado Firefighter Safety Act Petition Elections

Summary

The bill lets citizens trigger a statewide ballot measure that asks whether firefighters employed by a public agency should be covered by the Colorado Firefighter Safety Act and be allowed to collectively bargain. If at least 5% of voters sign a petition, the agency must place the question on the next general election ballot. A majority “yes” forces the agency to bargain with the named union; a “no” keeps the existing meet‑and‑confer process.
