2020 CARE Voter Guide 2020 VOTER GUIDE Colorado Advocates for Rural Electrification DEAR CARE MEMBERS, In coordination with Tri-State Generation and Transmission, the CARE Committee is happy to provide you with a 2020 Voter Guide. The intent of the 2020 Voter Guide is not to direct you how to vote, but rather help educate you on the candidates who are up for election November 3, 2020. The CARE Committee has been busy the last few months with interviewing candidates for elected office and making endorsements for candidates that will advocate for and strengthen the voice of Colorado’s electric cooperatives. The CARE Committee uses various criteria to evaluate candidates, including voting records, interviews, campaign literature, and public comments. It is much easier to evaluate an incumbent, as they have a voting record to review. New candidates for public office are difficult to evaluate, as positions change or evolve throughout the campaign and even after the election. The CREA Legislative team works with the CARE committee to meet with candidates - educating them about issues facing electric cooperatives. Not all candidates endorsed by the CARE Committee represent areas served by an electric cooperative. However, all members of the General Assembly ultimately vote on legislation. It is essential to be active in competitive races to support a candidate that will support cooperative issues. Regardless of how you vote come November 3, it is imperative to be part of the decision- making process in choosing our elected officials! Please reach out to CARE staff, Tim Coleman ([email protected]), if you have any questions regarding the information in the 2020 Voter Guide.

  • 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.

  • General Assembly State of Colorado Denver
    General Assembly State of Colorado Denver August 14, 2020 Colorado Oil & Gas Conservation Commission 1120 Lincoln St #801 Denver, CO 80203 Via email: [email protected] Nearly a decade in the making, the Colorado legislature passed Senate Bill 19-181 last year, charging the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC) “shall regulate oil and gas operations in a manner to protect and minimize adverse impacts to public health, safety, and welfare, the environment, and wildlife resources and shall protect against adverse impacts on any air, water, soil, or biological resources resulting from oil and gas operations.” This historic bill shifted our state focus to better prioritize health and safety as we also regulate this important industry. SB19-181 also made a significant change to the agency itself shifting the COGCC to full time members who can focus on these key issues. In the coming months, we know that your hard work will be key to implementing the legislative vision of this law. Your presence on this commission is intended to ensure fulfillment of the agency’s new mission. Truly, our constituents and local economies are relying on you, in this role, to help improve their overall wellbeing. This is no small task, which is why your expertise and willingness to join this effort makes us proud. We appreciate your support improving protections for public health, safety, and the environment. Due to the previous mission, COGCC commissioners and staff were often drawn between competing interests, often in conflict. This led to permits granted for oil and gas facilities that were not protective of public health, safety, welfare, the environment and wildlife.
