Speaking today on the House floor, 2nd congressional district Rep. Jared Polis gave his reasons for supporting the President’s stimulus bill.
Say what you want about Jared Polis, but the man knows how to create two of the things that can help us out of the recession: wealth and jobs. Congressman Polis’ entrepreneurial expertise–from his diverse business ventures, to his use of the internet and technology–gives him a leg up on many of his colleagues.
And for all those Republicans who say it’s one of the largest spending bills ever, Polis has a reminder:
“Madame Speaker, we can and will regain the world’s confidence in our economy, and retain our global competitiveness, and, indeed, save capitalism and free enterprise with one of the largest tax cuts ever.”
Keep up the good work, Congressman.

He’s not the gadfly troublemaker I prematurely judged him as. Glad to see him on board with the important stuff.
Jared Polis is doing such a great job, and its been only a few weeks. I am so pleased with our Congressional representation – Senators too.
I expected him to do a good job, but this is way beyond what I expected. If he stays on this trajectory he may be sitting in the Governor’s mansion 6 years from now…
