The Colorado Attorney General is one of four independently elected statewide offices in Colorado and was established by the state constitution upon statehood in 1876. The Attorney General and the Department of Law, which Attorney General Phil Weiser oversees (collectively referred to as the Colorado Attorney General’s Office or AGO), represents and defends the legal interests of the people of the State of Colorado and its sovereignty. The Attorney General exercises the responsibilities given to his office by the Colorado Constitution, statutes enacted by the Colorado General Assembly and the people of the state of Colorado, and the common law. The Attorney General has primary authority for enforcement of consumer protection and antitrust laws, prosecution of criminal appeals and some complex white-collar crimes, the Statewide Grand Jury, training and certification of peace officers, and certain natural resource and environmental matters. The Attorney General’s Office also works concurrently with Colorado’s 22 district attorneys and other local, state and federal law enforcement authorities to carry out the criminal justice responsibilities and activities of the office. The Attorney General is also the chief legal counsel and advisor to the executive branch of state government including the governor, except as otherwise provided by statute, all of the departments of state government, and to the many state agencies, boards, and commissions.

Just five companies control roughly 90% of the nation's commercial playground equipment market. Now, two of those companies, which account for 41% of sales in Colorado, want to merge.

With schools, churches, and parks spending anywhere from $50,000 to more than $1 million on playground equipment, less competition could mean higher prices, fewer choices, and lower quality.

AG Phil Weiser is joining the FTC and a bipartisan coalition of states to block the merger and protect Colorado communities. Read more: https://bit.ly/4yqLHYr

Bankruptcy shouldn't give tech companies a free pass on protecting children and consumers.

Colorado was already investigating Character.AI over serious concerns about its chatbots, including their potential to expose children to sexual content, encourage self-harm, and foster harmful emotional relationships.

Now, AG Phil Weiser is leading a bipartisan coalition of 38 attorneys general seeking stronger safety and privacy protections as the company moves through bankruptcy.

Character.AI holds sensitive personal information, including private conversations about users' mental health and emotional struggles. Colorado is working to ensure that information remains protected and that children's safety isn't compromised, regardless of who ultimately owns the company.

More than 10,000 Colorado children rely on Head Start each year for early education, critical health, nutrition, and developmental services.

Now, the Trump administration is proposing sweeping changes that could mean larger class sizes, fewer teachers, shorter program days, and reduced health and mental health services.

AG Phil Weiser is joining a multistate coalition opposing the proposal, which would eliminate more than 1,400 longstanding Head Start standards designed to protect children and families.

“We should be strengthening opportunities for kids, not undermining a program that has helped generations of families build a better future.”

No one should lose their home because they experienced domestic violence or abuse.

A new Colorado law passed last year expanded housing protections for victim-survivors, including requiring landlords to offer a repayment plan in certain cases when abuse causes missed or late rent. The law also protects survivors who need to end a lease early, change their locks, or take other steps to stay safe.

During Domestic Violence Awareness Month, AG Phil Weiser is reminding landlords of their responsibilities under the law and tenants of their rights.
