Cultivando, an Adams County-based organization serving the Latino community that advocates for health equity, organized a rally called “Our Health Matters More Than Cheap Gas” at the Colorado Capitol in Denver on Friday, April 21, 2023.

The environmental plans are not lieu of fines, but they can influence the amount a company pays in penalties, he said.
