** Happy International Women's Day!
------------------------------------------------------------

International Women's Day is on Sunday, March 8th. On that day, we will celebrate strong and courageous women. Without the guidance and support of all the women in my life, I would not be the person that I am today. With that, I say thank you to all the women in the House, in the Colorado General Assembly, and around the world.


** This Week in the Capitol
------------------------------------------------------------
On Friday, I had the opportunity to speak with First Generation students from Adams State University. Education opens many doors, particularly for First Gen students, and it is essential these young people who want to attend college are supported and have the resources to do so.
