  • 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.

  • 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.

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.

  • Notable Bills to Be Heard in Senate This Week
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Feb. 23, 2014 Notable bills to be heard in Senate this week DENVER -- The Senate has scheduled the following noteworthy bills to be heard this week. This list is not exhaustive but includes bills that are on topics that have typically garnered public input and media attention. The dates and times may change, so be sure to call and confirm the time and date before covering a bill. HB 14-1079: CAPITAL FOR COLORADO BUSINESSES Sponsors: Sen. Rachel Zenzinger, D-Arvada; Rep. Pete Lee, D-Colorado Springs Second-reading debate, Monday, Feb. 24 at 10:00 a.m. in Senate chambers Access to capital within Colorado continues to be inadequate for the needs of Colorado businesses and entrepreneurial startups. Historically, a gap occurs between funding available from friends, family, and angels and funding available from venture capitalists. One approach to raising capital in Colorado is through limited registration public offerings. This bill allows Colorado businesses to raise $5 million from limited registration public offerings, up from $1 million. HB 14-1077: RESPONSE TO OIL SPILLS Sponsors: Sen. Mary Hodge, D-Brighton; Rep. Cheri Gerou, R-Evergreen Senate Finance Committee, Tuesday, Feb. 25 at 2:00 p.m. in Senate committee room 354 This bipartisan bill will ensure there is an adequate balance to address environmental response needs by raising the cap on the two- year average of unobligated oil and gas conservation and environmental response funds to $6 million, up from $4 million.

  • 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.
