In a state shaken by tragic shootings, Colorado lawmakers advanced a measure to allow victims and relatives of school violence to sue the state for financial damages in what critics called a dramatic shift in policy.
The state Senate gave preliminary approval to the bill Tuesday after naming it in honor of Claire Davis, the 17-year-old senior shot and killed by a classmate at Arapahoe High School in 2013 (http://www.denverpost.com/news/ci_27130513/ceremony-will-mark-year-since-colorado-high-school?source=pkg).
Senate President Bill Cadman, the lead sponsor, made the legislation one his top priorities (http://www.denverpost.com/news/ci_27276449/colorado-senate-president-vows-find-ways-keep-students) and fought attempts to soften the measure.
"What is our goal with this bill? Moving our schools in the direction that provides increased safety for our kids with increased peace of mind for parents," the Colorado Springs Republican said.
