Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser issued an advisory reminding landlords of expanded housing protections for survivors of domestic violence, abuse, stalking, and unlawful sexual behavior. The advisory describes obligations involving repayment plans, lease termination, safety measures, and confidentiality; it does not announce a fine or enforcement order against a named landlord.
Landlords and property managers should review residential lease forms, tenant-facing policies, and property-management agreements for terms that could conflict with survivor protections. Check clauses and procedures for repayment plans instead of eviction over qualifying late rent, early lease termination, lock changes and other safety measures, allocation of abuser-caused damage, and restrictions on assigning related debts to collectors. Review privacy and access controls for tenant records so a survivor’s status and new address remain confidential, including any disclosures to vendors, collection agencies, or other third parties.

Colorado joined a coalition of states and local governments in suing the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration over its rule weakening fuel economy standards for new passenger cars and light trucks. The coalition alleges the rule violates federal law; the press release does not report a penalty or a court ruling.
Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser joined a multistate and local coalition challenging the EPA’s repeal of greenhouse gas limits for many coal- and gas-fired power plants. The coalition seeks to have the repeal struck down and the protections restored, and separately notified the EPA of its intent to sue over regulation of emissions from existing gas plants; no penalty or final court remedy is reported.
$469.0M
Colorado joined a 43-state-and-territory settlement resolving allegations that Sandoz and Fougera participated in a long-running conspiracy to inflate generic drug prices, reduce competition, and restrain trade. The companies agreed to pay approximately $469 million and implement reforms; the states are seeking court approval.
$35.0M
Colorado, the FTC, and a coalition of state attorneys general reached a settlement with Corteva over allegations that its post-patent loyalty program restricted distributors from selling competing generic pesticides. Corteva must end the challenged conduct and pay the states $35 million for fees and costs; the agreement is in effect for 10 years.
$2.3M
Colorado and a bipartisan coalition of attorneys general reached a $2,287,455 settlement with Laboratory Corporation of America over the 2019 data breach at its debt collector, American Medical Collection Agency. The settlement requires stronger vendor risk management and information security practices, with particular requirements for medical debt collectors.
Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser joined a coalition of 12 attorneys general in settling a lawsuit against Paramount Skydance Corporation over its merger with Warner Bros. Discovery, which the states alleged would harm competition by lowering film output and raising prices. The settlement includes a five-year commitment to increase film output, a $1.5 billion investment in domestic production, a $47.5 million worker fund, and an independent monitor. This is an antitrust/competition enforcement action, not a privacy enforcement action, despite the extraction schema's privacy focus.
