Because if these tax credits, CO has the lowest child poverty rate in the country. The program clearly works. Shouldn’t that be the metric for ensuring it’s funded? #copol

Colorado votes to feed children and improve pay for the cafeteria workers feeding them

Two propositions are poised to pass, LL and MM, that approve $100 million in spending paid for by small taxes on households earning more than $300,000

Props to Colorado voters for actually helping children

"City council voted down a two-year, $666,000 contract extension with Flock in May. However, Johnston signed a $498,500 contract extension for Flock in early August that, according to most of the speakers at the Wednesday town hall, was intentionally shy of a $500,000 contract review threshold that would have required council action."

Your move, Polis. The order getting us vaccines was nice. Make sure insurance will cover it. #COpol

"Colorado politicians be more "concerned" about the military takeover and destruction of democratic institutions and checks and balances rather than the moving of space force to another state" challenge [seemingly impossible]

Good morning everyone. I have a somewhat urgent request today. Lobbyists have been pressuring Colorado Gov. Jared Polis to veto HB25-1240, a bill that protects low-income renters who receive subsidies from housing discrimination, and seeks to prevent evictions without due process.

https://leg.colorado.gov/bills/hb25-1240

I plan to draft an email and also call his office to let him know that I support the bill, and if housing justice is important to you as well, I am asking you to do the same.

https://www.colorado.gov/governor/contact-us

The bill is on his desk today, so this needs to be done in the next few hours. If you have a moment, please email the governor in support of HB25-1240 this morning, and ask a few of your friends to do the same. Thank you!

We need and deserve better representation in Colorado. I didn’t vote for “not pissing people off”. Both he and Bennett have been beyond disappointing. #copol

Gee, ya think? 🙄😡

Town halls not going well for Dems either.

“…the meeting centered…on how Democrats…plan to push back against [trump’s] policies.

[#Bennet] did not provide detailed plans on how Democrats intend to counter [trump’s] policies...

#9NEWS followed up with Bennet after the town hall to ask whether Democrats have a plan to push back on the Trump administration's actions.

👉 [Bennet] said it's clear they need to develop a better one.”👈

Had to walk out of Republican town hall.

State and city Republican reps had a town hall here. In typical fashion they left only 20min out 90 for questions. All was reasonable until one started blath...
