It also eliminates certain employment protection provisions related to transfers to temporary positions for pregnant workers.

Colorado's law concerning bias-motivated crimes prohibits the intimidation or harassment of another person because of that person's actual or perceived race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, physical or mental disability, or sexual orientation.
