It’s been a busy month at our campaign HQ, friend. Here’s what I’ve been up to this November! 👇

NOVEMBER HIGHLIGHTS

From lawsuit wins to public forums to parades, it’s been a very busy November. (And I’ve got the iced tea numbers to prove it.) Check it out:

I ASKED, YOU RESPONDED

Over 500 of you gave me your feedback on the Colorado Blueprint, our 90+ pages of plans for our state. And I read every single response. I want to highlight a few patterns that stood out, and share what I’m adding to the Blueprint based on your suggestions:

Affordability. Not surprisingly, many of you spoke about affordability as a top concern, with many supporting our policies improving healthcare and housing affordability, as well as expressing appreciation for our focus on working families. I was deeply grateful and humbled by your words about my fight against the grocery store merger and the suggestions for more specific proposals on housing, as well as some specific ideas on that front. We will continue to drill down on those suggestions and prepare to tackle this top priority for both renters and homeowners.

Opportunities for our kids. his was also top of mind, with many comments on how we can improve K-12 schools and curriculum, recruit and support teachers, and invest in career and technical education for our kids. I am committed to doing just that — I particularly appreciated a suggestion from a Montrose resident on the importance of supporting and collaborating with local school boards. I also was grateful for the support for my ColoradoCorps concept, including from someone who heard me outline the concept in Alamosa and suggested that ColoradoCorp participants should be able to work in forestry, firefighting, and wildfire mitigation work — I agree, and I’ll be updating our plans with that great suggestion.

A resilient Colorado. I appreciated the comments about the importance of protecting public safety and our land, air, and water. Many called out the importance I placed on protecting Colorado’s water, encouraging steps to support voluntary conservation efforts like xeriscaping (landscaping with little or no water required). Many highlighted the importance of our continued clean energy leadership. Some noted that we should be more clear about the importance of protecting wildlife who are especially vulnerable at highway crossings.

Responding to our shared fears. From protecting Colorado against the lawless actions from the federal government to supporting young people hurting and searching for purpose, I couldn’t agree more with the comments we received about fears we share. As for the Trump Administration, a central message was to keep protecting Colorado and stand strong for our principles. As for the state of our politics, one person bemoaned the rise of "dark money" and corporate money, wanting Coloradans, not out-of-state interests, to decide elections.

Your suggestions are energizing and inspiring. Please keep them coming! If this recap has motivated you to share your own thoughts, please send them in through our suggestion box — it’s open 24/7. [[link removed]]
