The Trump administration is creating a list of migrant children in Colorado and their locations. They say it’s for the kids’ wellbeing, but advocates wonder if it’s also a veiled attempt to deport them. Then, what the federal spending bill means for you, from taxes to EVs to health insurance. Plus, a big anniversary party for a UFO landmark in the San Luis Valley that draws thousands of visitors a year.

This episode of Colorado Today is hosted by Arlo Pérez Esquivel. It’s edited and produced by Jo Erickson, Mateo Schimpf, and Stephanie Wolf. The executive producer is Rachel Estabrook. Theme music by Pedro Lumbraño.
