On Sunday, after 22 years of living in Colorado, I finally got to enjoy Colorado’s hot springs while on a New Year’s vacation in Glenwood Springs.

Come January, 30 years will have passed since the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights went into effect. Passed resoundingly by Colorado voters in 1992, for decades it’s been a godsend for taxpayers and served as a stopgap against runaway government. There’s much to celebrate about TABOR, with its two different yet equally significant protections for Coloradans.…

On Sunday morning, I woke up to news of yet another mass shooting in our state. This time, the dreadful attack was on Club Q, an LGBTQ nightclub in Colorado Springs. Like the rest of Colorado, I was devastated by the news, horrified that more lives had been taken in a senseless act of terror.…

For Colorado Republicans, last Tuesday’s “blood moon” symbolized a political bloodbath — and a clean sweep statewide for Colorado Democrats in the midterms. Nationally, the GOP’s much-anticipated red wave collided with a giant blue wall. No matter what happens in next month’s U.S. Senate runoff in Georgia, Democrats will maintain control of the upper chamber. Republicans…
