Governor Jared Polis, House and Senate Legislative Leadership announced that Coloradans will receive $400 cash back this summer. “People are paying more for everyday items like gas, groceries, and rent through no fault of their own. Instead of the government sitting on money that Coloradans earned, we want to give everyone cash back as quickly and easily as possible to provide immediate relief and empower people to do what they want to with their money,” said Governor Polis.
