Colorado tanning salons scored a victory over anti-tanning legislation with the March 26 defeat of SB 23. The bill died in the House by a 38-27 vote.
The bill would have prohibited the use of an artificial tanning device by a minor under age 18 unless specifically prescribed by a physician. It also would have required an owner, employee or operator of an artificial tanning device or tanning facility to verify the age of any person seeking access to an artificial tanning device.
