We are honored to announce that former Republican Colorado Attorney General Cynthia Coffman has endorsed my re-election for another term. Cynthia held this job directly prior to me and knows the job well, making her endorsement a deeply meaningful one. Cynthia joins a group of other respected Republican and Independent Colorado leaders who are publicly supporting my re-election as Attorney General. (Read the full press release and list of supporters here.)
Cynthia served as Attorney General in Colorado from 2015 through 2019. Prior to her tenure as Attorney General, she served as chief deputy attorney general to Republican Attorney General John Suthers and as chief legal counsel to Republican Governor Bill Owens. Here’s Cynthia’s statement endorsing me: |
“Phil Weiser understands and honors the office he has held the last four years. He is respected among his attorneys general peers as a collaborative leader who hasn’t been drawn into base partisan battles that threaten pragmatic problem solving. He is an influential voice in the national attorney general community because he is an independent thinker not susceptible to the sway of special interest groups. As General Weiser’s predecessor in the job, I have been pleased by his continuation of impactful initiatives in school safety, domestic violence & sexual assault prevention, substance abuse treatment, and childhood sexual abuse recovery.
Naturally, we do not see eye-to-eye on every policy issue or legal position, but Phil Weiser has earned my professional respect and personal support. General Weiser deserves another four years in service as Colorado’s attorney general.” – Cynthia Coffman, former Republican Colorado Attorney General |
As Attorney General, my job is to protect and defend all Coloradans. I’m committed to working for the best outcomes for Colorado families, seeking out the best ideas from people of all political stripes. I know we do our best work together by showing up, listening, and taking action to make a difference.
We have a tough race ahead. Please help share the news of this special endorsement and consider making a donation so we can continue our work in another term. |
