Colorado Politics: A year after blocking the release of state records to federal immigration agents, a Denver judge has now denied Gov. Jared Polis’ effort to end the lawsuit at the center of the dispute.

The lawsuit filed against the governor in 2025 by Scott Moss — then the director of the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment Division of Labor Standards and Statistics — sought to prevent Polis from disclosing data sought by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Moss claimed, and the judge agreed through a temporary injunction issued last June, that complying with an administrative subpoena for information on 35 individuals who are custodians of unaccompanied minor children who are illegally staying in the U.S. would violate state laws passed in 2021 and 2024.
