It’s really important to support good bills, like loan repayment programs for mental health workers, universal healthcare reforms, and increasing housing equity. And it’s just as vital to stand against bills like income tax cuts (like in Texas), which runs against how Colorado finances work, and only benefit the wealthy. And bills seeking to take away voting rights, or curtail mail ballots.
