Colorado's bipartisan SB 70, sponsored by Sen. Judy Amabile (D) and Sen. Lynda Zamora Wilson (R), would require law enforcement to obtain a warrant to query ALPR databases more than 72 hours after a crime, cap retention at 30 days, and bar sharing with outside jurisdictions. The bill advanced to Senate Appropriations in April after five hours of testimony from roughly 70 speakers.
