  • Guns, Grass, and God's Wrath, Colorado's Budget, Politics, and Elections
    Guns, Grass, and God’s Wrath, Colorado’s Budget, Politics, and Elections Michael J. Berry University of Colorado, Denver I. Introduction At the 2014 Democratic Party Assembly, incumbent Governor John Hickenlooper lamented that no “other state in the union . has been through as much as Colorado has in the past couple of years.” His statement was an implicit reference to a number of recent tragedies in the state. Among the most prominent were the 2012 Aurora movie theater shooting, the callous murder of Department of Corrections director Tom Clements in his home in early 2013, and the most dev- astating forest fires and floods to ever hit the state in June and September 2013. Hickenlooper’s statement on the uniqueness of the state, however, could just as easily apply to the state’s politi- cal realm. Colorado received considerable notoriety from the commencement of recreational marijuana sales on January 1, 2014. In a carefully staged photo opportunity, Iraq war veteran, Sean Azzariti, made the first legal recreational marijuana purchase as the state embarked on a grand social ex- periment. The prior year witnessed the first recall elections in state history resulting in the re- moval of two Democratic legislators from office including Senate President John Morse. An ad- ditional state senator facing a strong recall effort resigned under pressure. These highly charged campaigns to remove legislators were in response to the enactment of several controversial gun control laws. The legalization of recreational marijuana and the fight over gun control grabbed the lion’s share of headlines in the state over the past year.

  • 2017 Legislative Scorecard How Do Your State Legislators Score When It Comes to Guaranteeing a Fair and Just State for Lgbtq Coloradans and Their Families?
    LGBTQ EQUALITY 2017 LEGISLATIVE SCORECARD HOW DO YOUR STATE LEGISLATORS SCORE WHEN IT COMES TO GUARANTEEING A FAIR AND JUST STATE FOR LGBTQ COLORADANS AND THEIR FAMILIES? ONE COLORADO’S LEGISLATIVE SCORECARD highlights the priorities of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) Coloradans and their families in the 2017 legislative session. In this scorecard, you will find accurate, nonpartisan information on bills related to LGBTQ equality and how each member of the legislature voted on issues that affect Colorado’s LGBTQ community. USE THIS SCORECARD to find out if your elected officials’ votes align with your values of advancing equality for LGBTQ Coloradans. For more information, you can visit WWW.ONE-COLORADO.ORG. During the 2017 legislative session, we saw a number of victories for LGBTQ Coloradans and their families that were the product of successful, bipartisan cooperation. However, other measures that would have dramatically improved the lives of LGBTQ people were defeated—including a ban on the harmful and discredited practice of conversion therapy and a bill to make it less burdensome for transgender Coloradans to update the gender on their birth certificates. We also saw attempts to roll back protections for LGBTQ Coloradans, in the form of religious exemptions proposals, which were fortunately defeated in both chambers of the Colorado Legislature. WERE YOUR LEGISLATORS CHAMPIONS FOR LGBTQ EQUALITY THIS YEAR? Call or email them to thank them. Alternatively, if you aren’t satisfied with how your representatives and senators voted on this year’s scorecard, you can call, email, send a letter, or attend their town hall meetings to let them know how you feel.

  • The Arc of Colorado 2019 Legislative Scorecard
    The Arc of Colorado 2019 Legislative Scorecard A Letter from Our Executive Director: Dear Members of The Arc Community, Once again, I would like to thank each of you for your part in a successful legislative session. We rely on your expertise in the field. We rely on you for our strength in numbers. For all the ways you contributed this session, we are deeply appreciative. I would like to give a special thanks to those that came and testified on our behalf; Stephanie Garcia, Carol Meredith, Linda Skafflen, Shelby Lowery, Vicki Wray, Rowan Frederiksen, and many others who I may not have mentioned here. This session was a historic one. For the first time in 75 years, one party had control of the house, senate, and governor’s office. Additionally, there were 43 new legislators! We enjoyed a productive year in which The Arc of Colorado monitored 100 bills. Of those that we supported, 92% were signed by the governor and 100% of the bills that we opposed died. This high success rate means that individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families will have more opportunity to better live, work, learn, and play in their Colorado communities, with increased support. We are excited about many of this year’s outcomes. In a very tight budget year, the Joint Budget Committee was able to free up money for 150 additional slots for the Developmental Disabilities waiver waitlist. After three years of involvement, we finally saw the passing of HB19-1194, which places restrictions on suspensions and expulsions of children from preschool, through to second grade.

  • The Corrosive Effect of Recall Elections on State Legislative Politics Zachary J
    86.1 SIEGEL_FINAL (DO NOT DELETE) 11/14/2014 11:01 AM RECALL ME MAYBE? THE CORROSIVE EFFECT OF RECALL ELECTIONS ON STATE LEGISLATIVE POLITICS ZACHARY J. SIEGEL* For the first time in Colorado’s 137-year history, voters in two districts recalled their state senators from office in September 2013. Although the event prompted significant debate over the controversial gun legislation that sparked the grassroots efforts to trigger the recall elections, discussion generally overlooked the implications of using political recall altogether—implications that concern the very foundation of American democracy: the role of the legislator. This Comment aims to fill that gap, examining politically motivated recalls in the context of state legislatures. Using the recent Colorado examples as a case study, this Comment argues that increased use of the tactic will shake the foundation of state legislative politics. By forcing legislators to consider the chance that they might be recalled after voting on any controversial issue, the tactic upsets the delicate balance between a legislator’s ideal dual-role as a delegate and trustee, thereby distorting legislative decision- making. Additionally, increased use of political recall threatens to create a literal manifestation of the “permanent campaign,” and disproportionately advantage special interest and national groups in state politics. Seeking to address the problems associated with the increased use of this dangerous tactic, this Comment presents three policy recommendations. Two of the recommendations are aimed at preventing politically * J.D. Candidate, 2015, University of Colorado Law School; Executive Editor, University of Colorado Law Review.

  • Summary of the Colorado Health Benefits Exchange
    www.getcoveredco.org Summary of the Colorado Health Benefit Exchange November 2012 The Colorado Health Benefit Exchange is a new health insurance marketplace, scheduled to open for business in October 2013, where individuals, families and small employers can shop for and buy health insurance based on quality and price. Customers will shop primarily through a website and will have access to assistance by phone and in person through a network of customer support professionals. The Exchange will also provide access to financial assistance to eligible Coloradans to reduce the cost of premiums. The marketplace will have a new name prior to opening. Established by Senate Bill 11-200, the Exchange is a public, non-profit organization governed by a Board of Directors with additional direction from a panel of state legislators called the Legislative Implementation Review Committee. The mission of the Exchange is to increase access, affordability, and choice for individuals and small employers purchasing health insurance in Colorado. Customers are expected to begin purchasing health plans through the Exchange in October 2013, with plans taking effect on Jan. 1 2014. BACKGROUND The concept of a health insurance exchange is not new. Utah and Massachusetts operate different types of public exchanges. In 2008, the Colorado Blue Ribbon Commission for Health Care Reform recommended that the state create a way to help individuals and small businesses access health insurance as part of a larger effort to improve the health care system. Federal law enacted in 2010 calls for states to establish health insurance exchanges. Colorado leaders engaged in a broad discussion with stakeholder groups in 2010 to seek input about whether the state should move forward with an exchange and, if so, how it should be structured.

Although interest in health policy has not returned to the fever pitch of 2009, when the Affordable Care Act (ACA) was under debate, health care issues are more visible than in recent sessions thanks to greater attention on the cost of health coverage and hot-button social issues. That interest, coupled with budgetary pressures and the politics of a presidential election year, make the 2016 session one to watch. The General Assembly remains under split control, with Legislators are asking Democrats holding a three-seat majority in the House themselves who their base and Republicans maintaining a one-seat advantage voters are at a time when in the Senate.

  • Colorado 2018 Primary Election Results and Analysis
    June 27, 2018 Colorado 2018 Primary Election Results and Analysis Colorado held its primary election last night, setting the stage for the November general election where Walker Stapleton (R) and Jared Polis (D) will compete to replace term-limited Gov. John Hickenlooper (D). In all the statewide races, substantially more votes were cast in Democratic primary contests than in Republican races. Figures from the secretary of state’s office indicate that, as of midnight, 1,158,700 voters had returned their mail-in ballots, a number that represents more than 30 percent of the state’s total registered voters. Ballots are still being processed, with July 5 being the last day for military and overseas ballots to arrive and the last day for a voter to cure a missing signature or signature discrepancy. Even without the final numbers, it is clear that voter turnout was up significantly from the 2016 primary election when only 21 percent of the electorate participated—an all-time low. This year’s high primary turnout was due in part to Colorado’s new law allowing unaffiliated voters to participate for the first time. Of the 1,158,700 ballots tallied thus far, 280,958 were cast by unaffiliated voters, 412,411 by Republicans and 465,331 by Democrats. Ballots cast in the Democratic primary for governor exceeded those cast in the Republican primary by more than 100,000. This difference was consistent in congressional and state legislative races as well. In a state with voter registration roughly even among Republican, Democrat and unaffiliated voters, this trend is notable and may reflect intensity.

  • LEGISLATIVE WRAP-UP Colorado’S 2012 Legislative Session: the Colorado Coalition Against Domestic Violence Achieves Its Policy Priorities
    LEGISLATIVE WRAP-UP Colorado’s 2012 Legislative Session: The Colorado Coalition Against Domestic Violence Achieves Its Policy Priorities Colorado’s 69th General Assembly wrapped up the 2012 legislative session May 9th; then, they found themselves ordered into a special session by Governor Hickenlooper to finish their busi- ness in a more democratic manner because House leadership had allowed the clock run out on the Civil Unions Bill and some 30 other bills caught up in line behind it. One of the bills which the Colorado Coalition Against Domestic Violence invested a significant amount of time and energy on, the School Discipline Bill (Senate Bill 46), nearly failed along with the Civil Unions legislation, but was rescued during the special session by being added onto another related bill. The School Discipline Bill is one of many successful policy efforts, which CCADV accom- plished on behalf of our members and survivors this year. Other 2012 legislative priorities for the Colorado Coalition Against Domestic Violence include Senate Bill 56, which we contributed several provisions to and provided input on other provisions which Senator Morgan Carroll brought forward. Senate Bill 56 addresses aspects of various court appointed roles in domestic relations cases and requires persons in those roles to make disclosures if they have any per- sonal, financial, or familial relationships that would create a conflict of interest with regard to the parties in the case to which they were appointed or with the court. Both of these senate bills passed and have been signed into law by the Governor! CCADV also worked diligently to support, oppose, and amend dozens of other pieces of legisla- tion this past session.
