Colorado Dems Hose Workers Again

1 min read

(Colorado Peak Politics) The national media has taken note of fewer remote job opportunities for Colorado workers due to a 2019 law signed by Gov. Jared Polis that went into effect this year.

Democrats billed the new regulations as promoting equal pay, but in reality it led to no pay for many prospective remote workers, according to the Wall Street Journal.

To prove the point, local software engineer Aaron Batilo launched a web page to document remote work opportunities that are no longer available to Colorado workers.

[Batilo] took a day off work and spent 12 hours building a site, ColoradoExcluded.com, that tracks job listings that explicitly note they are not open to work in Colorado. He spends about five to 10 hours a week updating the site and manually verifying that listings exclude Colorado. As of Thursday, his list included 46 companies.
