LEGISLATION
"SB-058: Concerning Limitations on Genetic Testing," authored with Frederic R. Abrams, Lynda M. Fox, Judy Hutchison, Walt A. Oppenheim, Bernard A.

The Bill prohibits the health, group disability, and long-term care insurance industry from using, keeping, and seeking genetic testing information when underwriting present and potential clients. The Bill was signed into law by Governor Roy Romer on June 2, 1994. It is the result of deliberations by the Sub-Committee on Genetics and Insurance (which I chaired from December 1992 until June 1994) of the Colorado Governor's Commission on Life and the Law. I advised on the federal law passed in 2008.
