The Colorado House is scheduled to go into session at 9:00 am (MDT), and HB 1274 is on the House Calendar for third reading and final approval. It was originally scheduled for consideration yesterday, but held over due to prolonged debate on another bill. If the HB 1274 gets final approval in the House today, it would then move to the Colorado Senate.

The StandDown Texas Project
- The StandDown Texas Project was organized in 2000 to advocate a moratorium on executions and a state-sponsored review of Texas' application of the death penalty. To stand down is to go off duty temporarily, especially to review safety procedures.
