Colorado Senate District 5 is a crucial district for us this year. Since being redrawn in 2021, District 5 covers all or parts of Montrose, Delta, Hinsdale, Gunnison, Pitkin, Garfield, and Eagle Counties. There are 22 incorporated cities and towns in the District including Aspen, Basalt, Carbondale, Crawford, Crested Butte, Delta, Glenwood Springs, Gunnison, Hotchkiss, Lake City, Marble, Montrose, Mt. Crested Butte, New Castle, Olathe, Orchard City, Paonia, Parachute, Pitkin, Rifle, Silt, and Snowmass Village. The office is currently represented by Senator Perry Will, a Republican who is now running for County Commissioner.

Cole Buerger, a democrat, is running to take Senate District 5 back from Republicans and make the Western Slope woke again. There is nothing remarkable to say about Buerger, other than the fact that he is a progressive who habitually runs for office in his quest to destroy rural Colorado. Buerger ran for CD-3 in the last election cycle, and prior to that overly failed run, he ran for HD-57. Now, Buerger has his sights set on Senate 5, a much more vulnerable seat this year.

Buerger regularly touts his identity politics, calling Republicans "extremists," claiming that he must be elected to "protect democracy," the same talking points handed down by Biden and Harris. Buerger also creates ads urging voters to elect him because he is gay. Coloradoans have a live and let live attitude, but we are tired of identity politics and DEI-type platforms. We must choose a leader who has the experience and resolve to work for Coloradoans, not for progressive special interests and Jared Polis.

Marc Catlin is running to serve as the Colorado State Senator for District 5 (SD5). Currently, Marc Catlin serves as the State Representative for House District 58. Representative Catlin is currently serving his second year of his fourth term. Marc was born and raised in Montrose, Colorado, where he has spent most of his life on the family farm. The 5th Senate District has always been his home.

When he is elected to this position, Rep Catlin will make our roads and transportation infrastructure a priority during this term in office. As State Representative, he sponsored several bills that improved Colorado roads and transportation. Rep Catlin has also sponsored several bills ([link removed]) that protect our natural resources, especially water. At the Capitol, Marc is known as a "local water expert" and regularly testifies on water-related bills.

Marc Catlin is concerned about public schools and aims to promote local control as much as possible. In fact, Rep Catlin's staunch belief in local control has been a guiding principle for him at the legislature. He says, "It is not right for the state government to declare unfunded mandates on localities, especially, when the topic has not been heard by the people. We have a very special way of life on the Western Slope and we should do everything we can do to protect it. Local government understands our way of life. They understand what it is like to be a neighbor. It is easier to voice your concerns and perspectives at the local level. My job is to ensure that growth of state government does not encroach on our way of life and on our local control. I will do everything in my power in the state legislature to keep local control – local."

As of this writing, democrat candidate Buerger has outraised Marc Catlin by about $5000, a significant deficit for such a vulnerable seat.
