C.R.S. § 2-4-504: Tribal consent to application of state laws.

(1) Nothing in this part 5 prevents the Tribe from requesting inclusion in legislation pending before the general assembly.

(2) The governor and state agencies, in exercising the powers of the executive branch, may determine that the Tribe or the Tribe's governmental divisions are eligible for participation in state programs and grant funding that may be used within the reservation and that are designed to improve infrastructure, health care and treatment, telecommunications, transportation, education, law enforcement, environmental protections, wildlife resource management, water management, or other governmental functions and services, even if the law creating the program does not explicitly authorize participation by the Tribe.
