AP reports via CBS4: Colorado’s debate over repealing the death penalty will stay on hold, for now, after a state House committee decided Wednesday to delay a ballot measure on doing away with the punishment. The ballot-measure suggestion was the second Democratic death-penalty proposal in as many days to go on ice. On Tuesday, an […]
As of yesterday afternoon, the two most important gun safety bills to survive the agonizing debate in the Colorado General Assembly are on the way to Gov. John Hickenlooper's desk: House Bill 1229, closing the so-called "background check loophole" and requiring a standard CBI background check for most sales of guns, House Bill 1228 reinstating […]
We would be remiss if we didn't circle back to a story we've discussed a few times, the search by the University of Colorado, headed by ex-GOP kingpin and gubernatorial candidate Bruce Benson, for a "visiting scholar in conservative thought and policy." We haven't, as our readers know, had much good to say about this […]
The Denver Post has referred to Jean Dubofsky as one of a “dwindling breed of unabashed liberals.” https://bulk.resource.org/gpo.gov/hearings/108s/90303pt2.txt I have to admit, I have a soft spot for these dwindling “unabashed liberals.” But, former Colorado Supreme Court Justice Jean Dubofsky is also an evaluator of Colorado judges, an appellate strategist, an education advocate (indeed the […]
We talked today about the last-minute desperation on the part of Republicans and their gun-advocate allies to kill some or all of a package of five gun safety bills that won initial passage in the Colorado Senate on Friday. A key tactic employed by Republicans and allies in this debate has been to flood the […]
In 2010, the Colorado General Assembly enacted legislation that attempts a retrospective taking of accrued public pension cost-of-living (COLA) benefits. The bill that proposes to claw back these contracted pension benefits from retirees was supported by Colorado’s pension administration arm, Colorado PERA. That bill, SB10-001, was also supported by Colorado’s public education establishment and teachers’ […]
UPDATE 10:35PM: Senate Bill 196, the always-longshot Assault Weapon Responsibility Act, killed by sponsor President John Morse. —– UPDATE 10:30PM: House Bill 1224, limiting magazine capacity to 15 rounds, passes. —– UPDATE 10:22PM: Sen. Rollie Heath reads a statement on gun violence and campus security, then announces the death of House Bill 1226. —– UPDATE 10:00PM: […]
On its face, it's tough to argue with the story in the Denver Post today from reporter Ryan Parker. The story responds to a defense offered by Sen. Evie Hudak, as you know now in the hot seat for telling a testifying rape victim that "the statistics are not in your favor" in terms of defending […]
SATURDAY UPDATE #2: The Denver Post reports that Ryan Call defeated challenger Mark Baisley and will remain GOP chairman, final vote 272в…“ votes for Call to Baisley's 158в…” votes.There's some kind of methodology that explains the fractional vote totals, but we think it's more fun to let our readers speculate how Republicans arrived at a precise 272в…“ […]
[POLS NOTE: And how do we know that President Obama’s Chicago library card is real? Huh? Good Gravy, this is stupid.] You'd think KHOW's Peter Boyles, who's probably the leading birther talk-show host in America, would at least stop and say 'thank you' when a State Senator tips his hat to Boyles' relentless efforts to expose […]
