RNC Chair McDaniel: Women's History Month – Republicans' long history of championing women's rights, causes
|
|
|
Fox News: As the second woman to run the Republican National Committee, I know I stand on the shoulders of countless women who came before me. Like so many others, I would not be in the position I am were it not for pioneering women who paved the way for women in America to have the opportunities we do today.
As RNC chairman, I also believe Women’s History Month is an opportunity to correct the false narrative too often told by many in the media: that being a woman means subscribing to a certain set of political beliefs; namely, to toe the liberal line.

Colorado's roads ranked as some of the worst in the nation, according to report
|
|
|
Colorado Politics: Filled with cracks, potholes, and construction zones, navigating Colorado's roadways can put drivers to the test. To those navigating the Centennial State on a regular basis, it likely comes at no surprise that the local roads are among some of the worst in the United States.
According to a recent analysis from MoneyGeek, Colorado has the 15th-worst roads in the nation among the 50 states, plus DC. It's estimated that 18 percent of Colorado's roads are in 'poor' condition, with just 42 percent of Colorado's roads in 'good' condition. Granted, this compares to 83 percent of roads being in 'poor' condition in Washington DC (the worst in the country) and 38 percent of roads being in 'poor' condition in California (the worst among the states).
