Employer Didn’t Pay Me For Jury Duty In A State That Requires It

Colorado employer didn’t pay me for jury duty despite being given the documents I was supposed to provide them in order to show my length of jury duty service for payment; not sure if they’re bad at reading but they basically said “oh no, are there any options for someone with [my type of employment] to be compensated for losing wages this week?” I wasn’t confident enough to say they were absolutely supposed to pay me, so just replied essentially “this document lists everything that should be done.” At the time I thought I was working for a company that cared about my wellbeing so I just tried to forget about it and be excited about how nice they were to me most of the time (yes, I should have known I didn’t find the unicorn job that actually put employees first).
They’ve since done a few other illegal things, at least one that I’ll be filing a complaint with division of labor for. But am curious, what options do I have regarding the jury duty pay? Is it worth pursuing at all? Trying to get ducks in a row because they’ve lied about reason for termination and I’m afraid of how my unemployment claim will play out.
ETA that I feel like raising alerts about multiple illegal actions on their part would work in my favor if they’re planning on more lies in the future to fight me getting unemployment. And if I already am opening the can of worms on jury duty and could actually benefit in any significant way, that’d feel like some compensation for everything I’ve been put through.
