What 5 bills would you introduce?

Ok, with session about to start, if you were in the House what 5 bills would you introduce? I’ll start it off with my 5:

  1. Civil Unions
  2. Call for a constitutional convention. That will work as well as any of the other convoluted suggestions. And it will be quicker.
  3. Effective campaign finance reform. Either public financing or unlimited with full disclosure. Including Congressional elections in the state.
  4. Create a legislative research group who’s job is to measure the effectiveness and ROI of legislation, departments, etc.
  5. Invest in local start-ups. More jobs, better jobs, and the state turns a profit. What’s not to like?

Top 10 reasons RSB is a Republican

Just testing RSB’s first comment as a FPE 🙂

Congressman Jared Polis – the story behind the story on the tax compromise

(Bumped into Friday, highly discussable – promoted by Colorado Pols) FRIDAY POLS UPDATE: For details of the Colorado delegation’s split vote on the tax cut compromise, check Phoenix Rising’s latest diary. —– Congressman Polis was kind enough to talk to me last night and explain what was going on behind the scenes on the tax […]

The liberal argument for SB-191

Like everyone else, I first viewed this bill with some preconceived biases. But I think it’s fair to say that I have put a lot of time in, listening to both the arguments for the bill and the arguments against the bill. And my view of the bill evolved as I learned more, especially talking […]

Deborah and Me

(This is what happens when you slide out of an easy interview, Deborah. You get front paged. – promoted by Middle of the Road) Update: The interview is now on! I will be interviewing Beverly Ingle this Monday at 1:00. Please post suggested questions here! I was talking with Deborah Fallin at CEA to set […]

Use Tax update

Well we’re making progress on this, but still have a ways to go in terms of getting answers. The biggest shocker was the large number of legislators who do not order online. One or two makes sense as they represent the small segment of our population that does not shop online. But we have a […]

Maybe the Republicans are right.

I want to believe we Democrats do a better job running the government. I want to believe the government, while imperfect like the rest of us, does a good job delivering services. But then I get this. I sent an email in to DoR asking for guidance on how we need to apply the sales […]

Tea-party support in the Republican primary

To the Colorado Tea-partiers; Ok, first off I am an ardent Democrat and disagree with 80% (or more) of your political views. We are on opposite teams in every sense of the word. So take this with a grain of salt. But there are a couple of things I think we can agree on. First, […]

One key requirement of “Representative” Government

I think one absolutely critical requirement for our government to function is for our representatives to listen to the voters. To all of them. Without this ongoing feedback our elected officials become a body divorced from the people, swayed primarily by the few who have access to them. When that happens we lose something precious […]

What if Sexual Preference was a Choice?

The discussion in the Angie Zapata diary, especially the part kicked off by Barron, had me thinking – what if sexual preference was actually a choice. Granted, the science is overwhelming that it’s baked in by birth, but what if. What if it was merely a fundamental rarely changed decision similar to an individuals decision […]
