Here is what Colorado did last session that I think has some teeth to it and may eventually create some change.  There are many policies out there that create no change and are just rhetoric.  Hope it is of assistance.  marcia

KY is considering potential a potential executive order or legislation related to Employment First.  I would love to see what others have done.  If you have something(s), would you please send it my way?
