Our ballots are going to be huge but we'll help you decide, why is Denver cutting addiction spending when so many addicts are on our streets, and shades of anti semitism on the dysfunctional Denver School Board. It's the BLOG!

When candidates show you who they are believe them!
1. Butler is associating himself with DSA
2. BUTLER WANTS TO RAISE TAXES ON HARDWORKING Coloradans
3. Butler doesn’t know what he is talking about; K-12 schools ARE fully funded as required by the Constitution.
Tommy Butler is just wrong for Colorado! When it’s time to vote -Vote

Eastern and southern CO -
You’ve got one heck of a legislator in @RepTyWinter representing you in Denver.
Strong, smart and always shows up!!
And never a loss for words🤗
Had the best kind of Colorado weekend 🇺🇸 the kind that reminds you why this work matters! Started in Pueblo at the rally, then headed to Walsenburg for the Mountain Mining Days Parade, and wrapped it in La Junta watching my daughter play volleyball. From the energy in the crowd to the pride on those streets to the grit on the court , HD47 has the best people! Grateful to represent you. #TyHD47

Don’t let Prop NN’s education pitch fool you.
Prop NN isn’t just about education. It’s about permanently growing government and taking away your TABOR refunds.
Those are your dollars. Colorado should learn to live within its means, not keep asking taxpayers for more.
And actually, when you start digging into this, it's even worse.

I’ll be back with @MandyConnell Tomorrow, Friday at 2:30 PM MST to talk about three big measures headed to Colorado voters:
❌Prop NN ❌ Amendment 87 ✅ Prop 136
These are about your paycheck, your TABOR refunds, and how much more money the Democrats want to take and spend.
Don’t wait until your ballot shows up to figure it out.
Tune into @KOAColorado at 2:30pm tomorrow.
Know what you’re voting on!

Hey @YZokaie learning at the Joint Budget Committee credit cards are being maxed out and savings are being depleted- bad time to increase taxes!
Vote NO on NN !
Oh,btw, K-12 education funding has been increased annually by $1.3B in the last 4 years, without raising taxes. And nothing in the ballot measure guarantees or mandates increasing teacher pay.
Please stop the gaslighting.
#NoOnNN
Public schools in Colorado are chronically underfunded, but Prop NN on our ballot this year can change that.
Make sure to vote YES on Prop NN this November 🏫

Today marks 239 years since the United States Constitution was signed. On September 17, 1787, 39 patriots signed the Constitution. Many risked their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor for Independence just years before, during the Revolution, immortalizing the essential principles of the rule of law, separation of powers, and federalism as the foundation of our Republic.

HCPF promised $49 million in savings. It never happened. Now Medicaid is $158 million over budget.
This is mismanagement. Period. Taxpayers deserve accountability.
@MarshallZNews @9NEWS
Colorado's largest single expense in the state budget ran $158 million over budget last year, according to State Sen. Barb Kirkmeyer, R-Brighton, who sits on the special Commission on Medicaid. 9news.com/article/news/local…
