DENVER - Colorado Governor Jared Polis met with Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra today. 

“This has been a historic week when it comes to saving people money on health care and I am honored to welcome Secretary Becerra to our beautiful state. We discussed the landmark laws I signed this week creating the Colorado Option and a new board to help save people money on health care and prescription drugs. The Secretary has long championed the Affordable Care Act which has brought health care to millions of Americans including Coloradans living with pre-existing conditions. Secretary Becerra, the Biden Administration, and my administration will continue to meet people in their communities to ensure this free, quick, and safe vaccine gets into arms.”
