HB26-1013 is about fairness and transparency for renters. This bill strengthens my 2025 Junk Fees law by clarifying the rules for RUBS, so tenants and landlords are on the same page about how utilities can be billed. Happy to report it passed the House Business Affairs & Labor Committee today.

I am proud to be a child of immigrants. I am proud to be the first Iranian elected to the State Legislature. And I am so proud of our community’s work to resist fascism, racism, and cruelty.

In Colorado, we say enough. Today we unveiled a package of bills to protect our immigrant community.

Honored to co-sponsor legislation to protect immigrants in Colorado.

The Trump Administration's actions aren't about safety. They're about cruelty and control.

Colorado will not be complicit.
