After telling KOA’s Mike Rosen that he should have been farming today, rather than “sitting at [his] desk at the state Capitol,” Sen. Greg Brophy announced that the much-watched civil unions bill will soon die in the hands of his fellow Republican legislators.

Brophy said he’s heard that the bill will start in the Colorado House “and go to a committee where it will not pass.”

Rosen asked which committee, and Brophy replied, “Wild guess, State Affairs.”
