Proposition 133: Penalties for Human Trafficking of a Minor
Source: results.enr.clarityelections.com
What does this measure do?
Supports: Public Safety and Crime Control
Trafficking a minor for sex, including paying anything of value for sexual activity with a minor, would become a class 1 felony with life in prison without parole. Offenders would face the state's harshest sentence starting in 2027; the governor could still grant clemency.
Proposed by: Citizen initiative by Protect Kids Colorado (Initiative 108; Erin Lee and Michelle Austin)
Protect Kids Colorado is run by Erin Lee, a Wellington parental-rights activist. Former state Sen. Kevin Lundberg sits on its board. It also backs two measures on transgender youth.

A YES vote means

Colorado keeps its current definition and penalties for sex trafficking of a minor.
