2025 Legislative Scorecard
Scorecard Menu
Every year, Colorado legislators vote on hundreds of bills. Our legislative Scorecard highlights the most important environmental priorities — giving you a clear, nonpartisan view of who’s leading when it comes to protecting Colorado’s climate, lands, water and communities.
While the Trump administration is attempting to dismantle climate progress and environmental protections, states like Colorado must lead the way on climate action. This Legislative Scorecard helps you understand how your Colorado elected officials are showing up for our environment and communities — and where there’s work to do.
See how your legislators voted and how their decisions align with your environmental values. Then, take action and write to your representatives to let them know you’re paying attention.
You Make Victories Possible
Community members spoke loud and clear: all Coloradans deserve a healthy environment and communities. During the 2025 legislative session, Conservation Colorado advocates made their voices heard, sending over 1,400 emails, making nearly 300 calls and testifying dozens of times, urging legislators to support our priority conservation bills.
Key Victories
Climate & Clean Air
- Passed two key policies to expand clean, reliable transit and reduce transportation pollution
- Made it easier to bring wind and solar power to communities by installing power lines along highways without harming wildlife
- Stopped a bill that would have given tax breaks to energy and water-intensive tech companies without environmental safeguards
Environmental Justice
- Secured funding for the Outdoor Equity Grant Program to help historically excluded communities access parks and nature, benefiting mental and physical health
Lands & Water
- Permanently reauthorized the Colorado Wildlife Habitat Program, which has protected 35,000+ acres of wildlife habitat and opened 150,000+ acres of land for outdoor activities
- Improved water quality in areas affected by historic mining and increased funding to address drought threat
- Protected public lands from efforts to sell or privatize them
This progress is only possible because of our partners, members, supporters and activists like you!
Letter From Our CEO
Dear friends,
This year during the Colorado legislative session, Conservation Colorado—alongside our partners, allies and supporters like you—helped pass key legislation that keeps our state on track as a national climate leader and protects Colorado’s communities. While the Trump administration attempts to dismantle climate progress and environmental protections, state leadership is more important than ever, and Colorado must continue to lead on climate progress.
This legislative session, we supported legislation that reduces climate pollution, expands access to clean energy and the outdoors, protects our water and wildlife and defends Colorado’s public lands from being sold off. We also stopped harmful proposals that threatened our state’s climate goals and communities.
None of this would be possible without our legislative champions, coalition partners, supporters and people like you who testified, emailed and organized for change. We encourage you to read our 2025 Legislative Scorecard, thank our champions and keep holding our leaders accountable.
Together, let’s keep fighting for a healthy environment for all Coloradans!
For Colorado,
Kelly Nordini
Chief Executive Officer
