Health care workers, child protection workers, code enforcement officers and other public-facing, but unelected, workers can now get another layer of protection under a new law signed by Gov. Jared Polis last week.allows those workers to withhold their full name and home address from the internet if they attest to being at risk of imminent and serious threats.
The bill started with concerns from Larimer County officials that code enforcement officers specifically were facing disgruntled people tracking them down at their homes. It soon expanded when others shared similar stories, Boesenecker said. State Rep. Colin Larson, R-Littleton, sponsored the bill with Boesenecker. He called it a “measured, thoughtful, narrow” bill that protected the workers without infringing on people’s right to protest government actions they find unjust.
