1Opinion of the Court
Justice HOBBS delivered the Opinion of the Court.
We granted certiorari in this case to review the court of appeals' decision in Colorado Mining Ass'n v. Huber, 240 P.Bd 4583 (Colo.App.2010).1 The court of appeals ruled that Article X, Section 20 of the Colorado Constitution ("Amendment 1") requires statewide voter approval each time the Colorado Department of Revenue ("Department") calculates an increase in the amount of tax due per ton of coal extracted as directed by the tax rate formula contained in section 39-29-106, C.R.S. (2011). We disagree and reverse.
