"A former state senator from Colorado's eastern plains has filed an open records request to see if the governor's office or any other state body has used taxpayer funds to formulate a controversial ballot measure.

Former Sen. Mark Hillman, R-Burlington, said he filed the request for correspondence between the Colorado Department of Higher Education and the governor's office to see if taxpayer funds were improperly used to push for a ballot measure to increase the severance tax."
