🚨TAKE ACTION FOR FAIR TAXES 🚨

It’s about damn time the wealthy pay what they owe in taxes – but in order for the top 1% to pay more than us, we have to reform our tax code (aka TABOR).

Tell your legislators we won’t back down until the ban is repealed! bit.ly/reformTABOR

The Springs' local election on April 1 is a week away. We asked city council candidates tough questions and ~some~ answered. Take note of who didn’t bother responding….May be hard to get ahold of when they rep you, huh?

25-year-old (!) District 4 candidate Johnson proves that leadership isn’t about age, it’s about action. His platform is centered on public safety reform, housing affordability, and innovative transportation solutions.

Lauer is your best choice for District 3 as a bold advocate for working people, renters, and young Coloradans. She’s committed to fighting for housing rights, affordability, and increased government accountability and more accessibility.

Local elections matter more than ever, so we’re endorsing city council candidates! Give some love to your newest Youth Agenda Champions in the Colorado Springs April 1 election: Maryah Lauer (District 3) and Chauncy Johnson (District 4) 🎉🏅🎉

Thank you, Nicole, for the time, energy, and passion you put into us and our mission to harness young people’s political power to build a Colorado for all. You taught us SO much and we are ready to carry your legacy.

The work our Real Advocates do at the Capitol isn’t all fun and games (though we do get a little silly while we’re waiting for votes). Read our new blog post to learn how our 2025 work will build off of last year’s state and local wins! neweracoloradoaction.org/state-and-lo...
