A Colorado environmental group dropped plans to place an anti-fracking measure on the state's November ballot citing the COVID-19 pandemic, the second state initiative to be put off this year over virus worries.

The group, Colorado Rising, had been exploring several ballot initiatives to place more stringent regulations on oil and gas drilling in Colorado, the fifth-largest U.S. oil-producing state, after its 2018 effort failed. The group leading the initiative, Consumer Watchdog, collected signatures but will defer filing so voters do not have to make decisions amid the health crisis, President Jamie Court said.
Colorado Rising was behind a 2018 initiative proposing to increase the distance between new oil and gas drilling and public parks and schools.
