Message from the Chair
Governor Hickenlooper will visit the Sister Mary Alice Murphy Center this morning to sign Representative Kefalas' bill, HB12-1326, into Colorado law. In a difficult and partisan house controlled by only one Republican seat, Representaive Kefalas managed to get some of the people's business done. We congratulate John on his successful legislation and want to hold this example out as another reason to support John's campaign to become our next Senator from Senate District 14.
Congressman Jared Polis is visiting Loveland on Friday. Representative Polis is continuing to reach out and continue his conversation with Larimer County's voters. Take a moment to introduce yourself the new Congressman from Colorado's new Congressional District 2. Details below.
