Court bumps illegal alien measure off Colorado ballot


DENVER An effort to deny most state services to illegal aliens is getting knocked off Colorado's ballot.

The proposed amendment to the state constitution was tripped up by an existing provision of that document. Colorado's Supreme Court says the proposal violates a requirement that initiatives deal only with a single subject.

The unanimous decision deals a setback to supporters, including the governor. Efforts were already under way to collect signatures to get the measure on the November ballot. But backers promise to revise the language and start over.
