The 2024 Big Shots of the Year, Senators Kyle Mullica, Julie Gonzales, Dylan Roberts, and Kevin Priola were the prime sponsors for ColoradoĀ Senate Bill 20-163: School Entry Immunization. The bill, which became law in 2020, aimed to keep Colorado communities protected from vaccine-preventable diseases through the strengthening and standardization of school entry immunization requirements, including tightening the stateās nonmedical vaccine exemption requirements. The bill passed with bi-partisan support from both chambers of the Legislature, and with support from nearly 90% of Coloradans.
