Don’t let the smiles fool you—there wasn’t much good news to share at this morning’s CO Dem caucus briefing. I was proud to join @coloradofiscal.bsky.social @bellpolicy.bsky.social & CCD to discuss how HR-1/OBBBA will deepen economic insecurity & make it harder for folks to afford living in CO.

Why is Rep Gabe Evans pretending to take a phone call? He doesn’t want to answer for his vote to kick 28k of CD-08 residents from their health care & 27k from SNAP so he and Trump can give massive tax breaks to billionaires! I thought Apple didn’t let villains use iPhones #copolitics

Right now, corporate landlords are using complicated algorithms to jack up our rents. But we don’t need an algorithm to see that saving renters money is a good idea. Tell Governor Polis to sign HB 25-1004 at secure.everyaction.com/8KZ_LqhLQ0OW...

Right now, Governor Polis (@govofco.bsky.social) has the opportunity to save renters hundreds of dollars a year by signing HB25-1004. Tell him today just how much that would mean to you and your community at secure.everyaction.com/8KZ_LqhLQ0OW... #coleg #copolitics

Big win for Colorado renters! HB25-1004 just passed the House and Senate and one step closer to the Governor’s desk. It cracks down on corporate price-fixing and would end the hidden “13th month” of rent renters have been forced to pay thanks to corporate collusion.

Today, Colorado Senators @senrobrodriguez and @jessiedanielson_ introduced the Worker Protection Act aka #SB5

CO can stand with workers this year by securing greater freedom to negotiate pay, benefits, and safety.

Pass the Worker Protection Act! #coleg #copolitics

A day ticket to Park City costs $328, one of the most expensive resorts in the country but somehow Vail can’t afford to pay their patrollers (who keep their customers safe!) $2 more per hour in base pay?

Show solidarity with striking ski patrollers at Park City Mountain and don’t spend a dime at any Vail Resorts or their related businesses until workers have a fair contract!! Patrollers deserve fair pay and benefits! ✊ #unionstrong #CWA7781 #fairpayforpatrol #unitedmountainworkers

CO's outdated labor laws make it too hard for workers to negotiate fair pay, benefits & safe workplaces.

Elected officials must modernize laws to empower workers!
