In just a few short years, fracking has gone from a relatively obscure term to one of the more explosive (no pun intended) issues in Colorado politics.

Colorado House Speaker Mark Ferrandino took control of the state House of Representatives after the 2012 general elections, in which Republicans were resoundingly swept from their one-seat House majority.

Jared Polis to Tisha Schuller, president of the the Colorado Oil and Gas Association: “Ms. Schuller,” the letter begins. “Please stop suing the communities I represent.” “Elections matter. In a democracy both sides get to make their case and the people […]
As The Hill's Jonathan Easley reports: The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is expected to release data later this month showing a “surge” in enrollees in the federal and state healthcare exchanges for November. The numbers are expected to surpass the paltry figures for October, when enrollments were hampered by an erratic HealthCare.gov […]
Colorado county sheriffs pose for an NRA photo shoot last spring. An important development last Wednesday in the ongoing legal action by the gun lobby against gun safety legislation passed in Colorado this year, as reported by the Associated Press' Ivan Moreno. Don't let this slip down the Thanksgiving weekend memory hole: Sheriffs in most […]
