LEGISLATIVE
PRIORITIES
As State Representative, I helped pass over 110 bills and resolutions over 8 years that make our community safer, healthier, cleaner, and increase opportunity for all.
Check out some highlights from my work below and my legislative priorities as your next State Senator for District 28.
-
HOUSING
A safe home is the foundation of the rest of life: family, work, education, and health. Colorado must do more to make housing more affordable.
-
COST OF LIVING
The costs of housing, healthcare, and more are rising for Colorado families. Our laws can and must help Coloradans meet the costs getting by.
-
CONSUMER PROTECTION
Deceptive business practices hurt both Colorado families and honest businesses who do play by the rules. We need laws to prevent and punish deceptive business practices.
-
INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS
Colorado should be a state where anyone can be who they are without experiencing discrimination or bias-motivated crime, regardless of their identity.
-
CRIMINAL JUSTICE
Public safety means not just punishment, but also preventing crime in the first place, supporting survivors of crimes, holding law enforcement accountable, and reducing recidivism.
-
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
We owe it to our children to pass down a clean and habitable planet. This means holding polluters accountable and investing in new technologies and clean jobs.
-
GOOD GOVERNMENT
Government of and for the people requires transparency about what special interests are spending money to influence our elections and how our laws are made.
-
EDUCATION
Education has long been a gateway to opportunity in our country. Colorado must continue to improve how we invest in our kids, our teachers, and our schools.
-
VETERANS
Service members and their families commit to the values of our country and make sacrifices for those values. We should honor their commitment and sacrifice.
-
HEALTHCARE
Health care remains costly and out of reach for too many Coloradans. We can make it more accessible through increased transparency, greater efficiency, and curbing price hikes.
-
GUN VIOLENCE PREVENTION
We cannot talk about public safety without talking about gun safety. Our laws can support safe, responsible gun ownership and reduce accidents and gun crimes.
-
TRANSPORTATION
As Colorado grows we have to invest in all the ways people get where they need to go: roads and highways as well as public transit.
