Governor Reverses Plans to Raid LEAF

A day after the Denver Post reported a move by Governor Ritter to divert most of the money from a special DUI enforcement fund to plug holes in the state's budget, the Governor's office announced that the plan has been scrapped and that the Law Enforcement Assistance Fund will remain intact for use by law enforcement agencies thoroughout the state for dedicated enforcement of drunk-driving laws. The Governor cited numerous concerns by law enforcement as the chief reason for the reversal of the executive order.
