It was a pleasure to go down to Springfield last Friday after I got finished at the Senate. Had some good food and got to listen to great people. There were candidates for all the county races along with Rep. Boebert and State Treasurer candidate Kevin Grantham. Time well spent!
Last Thursday, we had Sportsmen’s Day at the Capitol and Aide Appreciation Day. Grateful to be apart of the Sportsmen’s Caucus and to have had the honor to speak at the event along with having two great aides.

It was my honor to host the Kit Carson School Seniors at the Capitol. I am glad to see young people being involved in the legislative process. They are the future of our state!

While arguing in favor of SB26-062, one of the sponsors said, “I don't know what things look like in the world of rodenticides or anything else in the pesticide world”.

My bill SB26-60: “Alyssa’s Act”, passed unanimously out of committee today. This bill will add a mental health component to coach training on concussion protocols. It will also make it so that parents are notified of potential emotional changes after head injuries.

UPDATE on SB-097, the pro-prostitution bill:
As of today, SB-097 is officially dead. We are grateful to all the Coloradans who made their voices heard and joined us in the fight to stop this legislation. We sent a clear message to the majority: our state does not need to be the guinea pig for statewide prostitution that is associated with higher levels of human trafficking and would bring brothels into neighborhoods, school districts, and other vulnerable areas. #copolitics
