Why we checked itA claim about a specific legislative action and the speaker's own vote; checkable in the legislative record.
What we foundColorado did vote to use state money to cover Medicaid payments the federal government stopped making (SB25B-002, August 2025 special session), and the Senate roll call lists Baisley as voting no. The bill was narrow: it covered providers newly barred from federal Medicaid, such as Planned Parenthood, at a cost of up to $4.4 million, not the wider federal Medicaid cuts.
