Colorado News, Emergency, Weather and Sports (NEWS) Act
For too long, TV market lines have shut out Coloradans living in the Four Corners region from the news, weather, sports and emergency information they need. The residents of Durango, Cortez and the rest of the Four Corners region deserve a permanent solution that gives them meaningful access to Colorado TV. That's why I introduced the Colorado NEWS Act, which builds on my past work to ensure the Four Corners region has access to Denver Broncos' games and that residents are able to share their concerns with the Federal Communications Commission. My bill would allow TV providers to transmit TV signals from Colorado-based broadcast stations to viewers in La Plata and Montezuma counties, giving them access to information most relevant to them.
If you have further questions about this or any other issue, please contact me with your concerns.
