CCMU Initiatives & Policy
Throughout its history, CCMU has played a large role in the development of sustainable, effective public policy that helps Coloradans receive access to quality, timely, affordable care. Currently, we lead two advocacy initiatives: KidzBlitz, which helps qualified families enroll their children in public health coverage programs and the 2010: All Kids Covered Initiative, which is striving to provide public or private coverage for all children by the year 2010 through public and private means.

In addition to our advocacy initiatives, CCMU has a consistent commitment to monitoring policy initiatives and proposed legislation in Colorado, and leading health care reform efforts that will improve Colorado’s health care system. Some of CCMU’s greatest legislative accomplishments include the passage of Amendment 35 in 2004, which increased funding for health care through the tobacco tax, passage of Referendum C in 2006, providing for a five year reprieve from TABOR spending requirements, and passage of Senate Bills 160, 161, and 217 in the 2008 Colorado Legislative Session.
