WESTERN GOVERNORS January 25, 2019 Colorado Special Report #2332
WESTERN GOVERNORS January 25, 2019 Colorado Special Report #2332 On January 10, Governor Jared Polis (D) gave his State of the State address. He talked about agricultural exports and volatile commodities markets, the damaging trade war, and increasingly serious water shortages, which are make life harder. “The lifeblood of our agriculture industry is water – which is why we must commit to a bipartisan and sustainable funding source for the Colorado Water Plan. Governor Hickenlooper, along with the leadership of John Stulp, did extraordinary work bringing together a coalition of Coloradans from all corners of our state to create the Water Plan. Now we’re going to do our part by implementing it. We will also partner with organizations like the Rocky Mountain Farmers Union’s Co-Op Development Center and others to reduce barriers to employee ownership and grow wages in the agriculture sector. And we’ll work with the Rural Colorado Venture Capital Fund to expand access to capital and help the next generation of farmers thrive.” He also talked about climate change and protecting Colorado’s way of life. “Climate change is a scientific reality. It’s real. There’s no pretending otherwise for farmers and ranchers who are facing historic water shortages. There’s no pretending otherwise for the 46,000 women and men who work in Colorado’s ski industry and see their jobs threatened by decreased snowpack. And there will be no pretending otherwise in this administration. We’re going to confront this challenge head-on – not only because we must, but because we want to take advantage of the huge opportunities associated with being a leader in the growing green-energy economy. -

TESTIMONY of the Honorable Jared Polis Governor State of Colorado
TESTIMONY OF The Honorable Jared Polis Governor State of Colorado HEARING ON “On the Front Line: How Governors are Battling the COVID-19 Pandemic.” Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations Committee on Energy and Commerce United States House of Representatives June 2, 2020 Good morning and thank you for the invitation to testify. Thank you to: ● Subcommittee Chairwoman Representative Diana DeGette ● Subcommittee Ranking Member Representative Brett Guthrie ● Committee Chairman Representative Frank Pallone ● Committee Ranking Member Representative Greg Walden ● Members of the committee ● Governor Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan ● Governor Asa Hutchinson of Arkansas ● And everyone tuning in at home I want to provide an overview of the steps that we have taken on both the public health side and the economic side, with the hope that some of our successful practices can be an example for other states and for the federal government. We started by setting realistic goals. We know that given the freedom of movement throughout the United States, it would be impossible to eradicate the virus in Colorado until there is a cure or a vaccine. So on the public health side, our focus has been on saving as many lives as possible by: ● Limiting the spread of the virus, ● Protecting the most vulnerable - particularly older Coloradans in congregate care ● Supporting our healthcare providers and continuing to ensure people have access to care despite the pandemic 1 ● Doing everything we can to obtain testing equipment and personal protective equipment and being as smart as we could about the uses of these resources, given the constrained supply ● Preserving the ability of our health care system to meet the needs of every critical patient that comes through the door -- with COVID or a non-COVID issue And on the economic side, we have taken a number of extraordinary measures to help workers and small businesses weather the storm, and we have made strategic decisions about reopening to balance the risk to public health with the economic, societal, and psychological needs of Coloradans. -
