Amendment 49 would ban governments from taking deductions directly from employee paychecks for any nongovernmental special interest group.
Supporters said the amendment establishes ethical standards prohibiting Colorado governments from bundling money from public employees' paycheck and delivering funds to special interest groups, like unions.
Opponents said the amendment precludes every public employee from making decisions about any organization they want to support through paycheck deductions and will not produce any real cost saving for the government.
