CO Legislature passes funeral home crackdown after fake ashes, heaps of rotting bodies make national headlines
Fox News
The Colorado Legislature passed a sweeping bill Monday intended to overhaul the state's regulatory infrastructure in its death care industry.
If signed, the law would give regulators far greater enforcement power over funeral homes and require routine inspections of facilities including after one shutters.
It joins a second bill that passed both chambers last week which, if signed, would require funeral home directors and other industry roles to pass a background check, get a degree in mortuary science, and pass a national examination and an apprenticeship.
