Thank you for taking the time to read my first newsletter of the Second Session of the 69th Colorado General Assembly.  Throughout the year, I will be posting periodic updates to keep you informed of issues affecting our district and state.

As always, I encourage you to contact me with any thoughts and concerns you may have.  I look forward to staying engaged with you throughout the legislative session.

Respectfully,

Dan Nordberg
Colorado House of Representatives
House District 14

 

2014 Committee Assignments:
Bills I am working on:

HB 14-1003-Concerning A Non-Resident Income Tax Deduction For Disaster Relief Workers: 

Individuals from other states are currently liable to pay Colorado income tax on income derived from all sources within Colorado.  This bill exempts non-residents from the state income tax if they perform emergency-related work on critical infrastructure that has been affected by a declared state disaster emergency.  The measure would also provide an exemption to non-resident emergency service workers (Example: fire-fighters) if they provide emergency service work related to the declared disaster emergency.  The exemption would only be in effect for 60 days following the Governor’s disaster declaration.

HB (No Designation Yet):  Concerning The Requirement That A Super Majority Of The Members Elected To The General Assembly Approve Laws That Increase Revenue:

This bill requires at least 60% of both houses of the general assembly to approve any law that creates a new fee or increases an existing fee.  With over 340 state sanctioned fees, costing Colorado taxpayers millions of dollars a year, the Legislature needs to increase their oversight of Government Agencies and ensure the fees they create aren’t just new taxes in disguise.
