Immediately after the Alabama legislature passed and Governor Kay Ivey signed the Human Life Protection Act into law last week, Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold reportedly worked with Planned Parenthood to coordinate a press release announcing her office’s plans to boycott the state.

“Internal emails obtained by 9News provide an eye-opening look into how Griswold involved Planned Parenthood in an official declaration regarding the travel of state employees under her purview,” Yellowhammer News’ Sean Ross wrote on Thursday.

However, as it turns out, it is not that much.

According to Colorado Springs NBC-affiliate KOAA, the Colorado Secretary of State’s office has spent $1,797 dating back to 2017.

In 2017, tourists spent $14.3 billion in Alabama. In 2018, the total grew to $15.5 billion for a total of $29.8 billion. The Colorado Secretary of State’s office accounted for 0.000006% of total tourism spending in Alabama over that period.
