Bill to give Ute tribal members free state parks access has other tribes with roots in Colorado asking to be included 

The proposal has broad legislative support, but is dividing the Indigenous community.

The two tribes with reservations in Colorado could gain free access to state parks, under a bill moving through the legislature. But the proposal has been met with frustration from members of other tribes with historic roots in the state.

The bipartisan bill passed its first committee unanimously earlier this week.
