Colorado Politics: Democratic lawmakers, who are preparing for a fight with the governor over a myriad of issues, will seek an override of Gov. Jared Polis’ veto of Senate Bill 77, which increased deadlines to fulfill public records requests in Colorado.

The measure changed the state’s open records law, increasing the costs of open records requests, creating three classes of requesters, and extending the time a governmental entity must comply with those requests. One of the main criticisms of the bill was that it allowed the media to receive public records quicker than the general public.

Polis vetoed the bill last week, citing concerns over its creation of three classes of requesters: mass media, those who seek open records for financial gain, and everyone else.
