Tax increase on Colorado鈥檚 high earners to fund school meals.

Colorado voters approved a ballot measure Tuesday that will increase taxes for households making at least $300,000 annually to fully fund a program that provides free breakfast and lunch for all K-12 public school students. The average income tax increase for those affected is estimated to be $486. Any leftover money will go toward the state鈥檚 Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. In 2022, Colorado was among the first states to pass a 鈥渦niversal school meal鈥 program, but it has run into budget troubles since then.聽
