The Colorado state Senate on Thursday approved a $28.9 billion state budget over the objections of fiscal conservatives and some Democrats, sending the annual spending plan to conference committee. The two-day budget debate transpired much like last week’s vote in the House of Representatives, with lawmakers approving millions of dollars in new spending on a variety of pet projects, boosting funding to rural broadband, affordable housing and school security. A bipartisan majority led by Senate President Kevin Grantham, R-Canon City, also restored $750,000 in funding for film industry incentives, a governor’s office economic development program that fiscal conservatives and some Democrats for years have tried to abolish.
