However, during the 2022 General Assembly session, lawmakers decided that for the tax year 2021, the amount would be a flat $750 for individual filers and $1,500 for couples. In the 2021 tax year, the state income tax rate was a ridiculously low 4.5%, which means that many of us got or will get refunds in addition to the rebate. Coloradans enjoy a combined state and local tax burden that is right in the middle of the pack of all 50 states. We don’t pay the highest taxes, nor do we pay the lowest taxes.

Johnny Richmond is an addiction counselor at Colorado Coalition for the Homeless. He says the growing number of unhoused people is sad but not surprising. If you’re living paycheck to paycheck, missing one paycheck could easily set a person back. And god forbid if they lose their job or the roof over their heads.
