“Colorado workers would get 12 weeks’ paid family leave under new bill — but they have to pay, too.”
Why This Race Is Important
Colorado is a Blue Flip state. Democrats are only one seat away from flipping the state senate!
Colorado currently has a Democratic Governor, a Democratic House, and a Republican Senate. However, the governor is term-limited out and a new governor will be elected in November.
Right now, Democrats have 17 seats in the Colorado Senate and Republicans have 18 seats. Democrats need to flip one seat to flip the state senate, and turn Colorado into a Democratic trifecta state.
Sister District Policy Scorecard
This candidate has pledged commitment to the following statements:

- We need to protect and expand our social safety net, not dismantle it.
- We should pursue common-sense gun safety policies, consistent with the Second Amendment and local community standards and needs, which vary from community to community.
- Climate change is real and we need to protect our environment.
