Americans For Prosperity-Colorado, the well-funded conservative message group tied to the Koch Brothers empire of political advocacy organizations, is launching a campaign that’s fairly unusual at first glance–praising Democrats for a bill passed this year on charter school funding: Americans for Prosperity Colorado launched a “Thank you” ad campaign, acknowledging state legislators from both sides […]
Jon Caldara’s sniffling Denver Post op-ed last month, decrying fellow Republicans who voted to save rural hospitals via a budget maneuver, prompted ColoradoPols to write a post headlined, “World’s smallest violin plays for legislative loser Jon Caldara.” But, in case you missed it, Caldara took heat from fellow Republicans too, such as State Sen. Larry Crowder (R-Alamosa), […]
UPDATE: Peter Marcus at the Colorado Springs Gazette: Colorado’s House Republican leader on Tuesday defended President Trump’s temporary refugee and select immigration bans, saying the orders are a prudent move to understand threats facing the nation… “I don’t think there is any disagreement that we are a nation of immigrants. This is simply a temporary […]
State Rep. Tim Leonard (R-Evergreen) is at the State Capitol today as the legislature officially convenes for the 2017 session. The accommodations under the Gold Dome are (probably) considerably more comfortable than where Leonard was biding his time three weeks ago, when he was finishing up a 14-day jail sentence in Jefferson County. From everything we hear, […]
Outgoing Sen. Laura Woods (R-Arvada). In 2013, a unified Democratic Colorado General Assembly passed a slate of gun safety bills in the aftermath of two horrific mass shooting events in the prior year: the December 2012 massacre of elementary students and teachers in Newtown, Connecticut, and especially the July 20th, 2012 killing of a dozen […]
UPDATE #2: Statement from House Speaker Dickey Lee Hullinghorst: “It is my duty to protect the integrity of the House of Representatives, and it is troubling when a member does not uphold the law,” Speaker Hullinghorst said. “It is absurd to imagine Rep. Leonard taking a seat on the House Education Committee, to which he was reappointed […]
Colorado Republicans understand Faust perhaps better than most. Faust, of course, is the main character in the classic 600-year-old German legend of a man who makes a “deal with the devil” to turn over his soul in exchange for unlimited knowledge and worldly pleasures. In modern times, a “Faustian bargain” is the term for a […]
By this time next week, many Colorado voters will have already cast their ballots in the 2016 election; we’re almost home, folks. It’s time to Get More Smarter with Colorado Pols. If you think we missed something important, please include the link in the comments below (here’s a good example). If you are more of a visual learner, check […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Last year’s recall of Jefferson County school board member Julie Williams is widely considered a huge factor in this year’s Arvada/Westminster state senate race that will likely determine whether Republicans retain control of the state senate. Jefferson Country voters threw out Tea Party conservatives on their school board, with special ire […]
