Colorado Democrats Introduce “No Kings Act”– Another Power Grab? Colorado lawmakers have introduced SB26-176, dubbed the “No Kings Act.” Sponsored by Democrat Sens. Mike Weissman and Julie Gonzales, the bill would allow individuals to sue federal, state, and local officials in Colorado state courts for alleged violations of constitutional rights. Framed as a check on “executive overreach,” critics argue this is a targeted response to the Trump administration — opening the floodgates for activist lawsuits against federal agents, immigration enforcement, and anyone enforcing laws Democrats dislike. While supporters claim it simply extends existing civil rights protections (like 42 U.S.C. § 1983) to federal officials, opponents warn it will overwhelm courts, undermine qualified immunity, and turn Colorado into a litigation battlefield against America First policies. With just weeks left in the legislative session, this rushed bill raises serious questions about who it’s really meant to protect — and who it’s meant to punish. No kings?
Sounds more like no accountability for those abusing the system against everyday Americans.
