Thank you, Rep. Pettersen! @RepPettersen
"I'm voting YES on Amendment 87 because it is absolutely imperative that we mitigate the cuts from Donald Trump and Republicans to our healthcare system and our schools."

WATCH Gabe Evans' Aunt, Jennifer Chavez, Talk About How Evans dishonors her father, who is Evans' grandfather. Evans has supported mass deportations of immigrants from the get-go, and yet invokes his grandpa -- who came to our country illegally -- to try to connect with Hispanic voters and others. Here's what Gabe Evans' aunt has to say about it.

Prop 137 announced today more organizations and leaders who are backing this measure to sustainably fund wildfire risk reduction, water and land conservation, outdoor recreation, and access to nature. #COPolitics #YesonProp137 #endorsements

The only thing inside Amendment 87 is delicious nougat and a tax cut for 97% of Coloradans, INCLUDING seniors, veterans, and small businesses. Check your text messages carefully! And watch this segment from 9News: youtu.be/2p_9jcWh32s?is=gBEg…

Thank you @nexton9news for this take down of the lies peddled by the desperate opponents of the graduated income tax. The GIT WILL NOT raise taxes for seniors and veterans making less than $500k/yr. It will cut taxes for 97% of Coloradans. #copolitics

Thanks for asking! Here’s who it’s NOT backed by:
Colorado Society of Addiction Medicine

American College of Emergency Physicians (Colorado Chapter)
All oppose Prop 132.

BREAKING: CO's new budget forecast shows Medicaid costs surging, meaning cuts to care Coloradans depend on.
"...Amendment 87 fixes it, asking the top 3% to pay their fair share and generating $2.7B/year for health care, education, & child care."
Yes on 87. #YesOn87 #CoPolitics

It's official 🥳 Income Tax Fairness is on the ballot! Colorado's tax system is broken. A nurse or teacher making $50K pays the same rate as a millionaire or big corporation. Under Initiative 195, 97% of taxpayers get a tax cut, & no one under $500K pays a penny more. #copolitics

Inflation is rising, gas prices remain high and economic growth is slowing - the U.S. economy grew just 1.5% last quarter. Tariffs are another added cost to families & businesses here in Colorado. #copolitics #CostOfLiving #affordability

Well-done check on what dark money-funded opponents are saying about the graduated income tax. It is not "un-American." What's un-American is the obsessive money grab by the uber wealthy who keep pushing the American dream out of reach for the rest of us. coloradotimesrecorder.com/20…

"They’re angry at Republicans," Trump said, "But they’re not angry at me."
Is Trump already writing off Gabe Evans?

Don't buy what they're selling — which is a report full of wishful thinking about the graduated income tax and how they say it will interact with other measures on the ballot. It's not, as the legal folks say, severable in ways that suit their agenda.#copolitics

The graduated income tax that we're working so hard to get to the ballot will save you money if you're part of the 97% of Coloradans who make less than $500K a year. Check out our calculator at protectcoloradosfuture.com/ and sign the petition if you haven't yet!!

The "think tank" funded by CO's richest man & biggest businesses includes college tuition, unemployment insurance, & the lottery in their calculation. This ludicrous graphic is designed to trick voters into opposing higher taxes for the wealthiest 3%. Don't be fooled. #copolitics
Colorado's income-tax rate is among the lowest in the country, but fee-funded enterprises tell another part of the story.
If the revenue collected by Colorado's fee-funded enterprises in 2025 were instead raised through the state income tax, the current rate would need to rise from 4.4% to 14.22%. Learn more in CSI's full analysis: bit.ly/4bt0md0

Economic mobility is a critical part of the American Dream: Work hard, play by the rules, and you'll get ahead — no matter how humble your beginnings. But increasing wealth inequality has changed that equation. bellpolicy.org/newsletter/
