Colorado voters will decide Initiative 108 in November 2026, which would elevate penalties for human trafficking of a minor from a class 2 felony (8-24 years) to a class 1 felony requiring life imprisonment without parole. The measure qualified after Protect Kids Colorado gathered over 170,000 signatures alongside two other citizen initiatives focused on youth sports and medical procedures for minors. Trader pricing at even odds reflects the tension between broad public support for stricter sentencing on child exploitation and organized opposition framing the proposal as part of a wider agenda that could affect victim services or create overly broad prosecutorial tools. Key variables ahead include campaign spending, endorsements from law enforcement or survivor groups, voter education on the precise statutory changes, and overall November turnout patterns.
