House Republicans call on Weiser to enforce propositions

(The Center Square) - Colorado Republicans are calling on Gov.-elect Phil Weiser to enforce voter-approved propositions concerning transgender students’ participation in girls' sports, gender-changing surgeries for minors, and increased penalties for fentanyl crimes and the sex trafficking of a minor. All four propositions passed in the Nov. 3 general election. But Weiser told the media in a post-election interview that the measures would need a “long, hard look” before they are implemented. The Colorado House Republican Caucus this week released a statement , accusing Weiser, who's a Democrat and is currently the state attorney general, and the Democrats controlling House and Senate of undermining “the will of the voters." After the Nov. 3 general election, Democrats saw their legislative majorities become supermajorities. “Weiser and other Democrat lawmakers have already begun exploring efforts to change or even override these measures," the House Republicans said. “These comments raise deep concerns that the voice of the people will be disregarded by the incoming Democrat leadership.” "If the Democrats truly believe there should be ‘No Kings’ in America, it is time they take their own advice," the Republicans said. The Center Square reached out to the Colorado House Republican Caucus, which declined to comment

Colorado Voters In November Election Confirm That The State Is Now Bluer Than Blue

Once upon a time, Colorado was considered an independent purple state, with no political party deemed dominant. But with the legalization of marijuana in 2012, the demographics of the state began to change. Moreover, Democrats began changing virtually every voting law in their favor, often aided by moderate Republicans who viewed themselves as more in line with the Left than with populist Republicans.

Proposition NN and Amendment 87 reverse years of K-12 funding failure at the ballot box

Did you know search engines like Google are changing the way you see news? Keep Chalkbeat’s valuable education coverage at the top of your feeds by clicking here and checking the box next to our name. For years, Colorado education advocates have tried and failed to persuade voters to approve more tax revenue for schools. Proposition 103 failed in 2011, followed by Amendment 66 in 2013. Amendment 73 and Proposition CC flopped in back-to-back years in 2018 and 2019. Initiatives 271 in 2020 and 63 in 2022 never even made the ballot. Last week, however, Coloradans ended that 15-year streak by approving not one but two measures that will deliver a large infusion of funding for K-12 education. One dramatically shifted Colorado’s tax code to collect more money from the wealthy. The other allows the state to keep money normally refunded to taxpayers. A “ blue tsunami ” of Democratic support likely helped Amendment 87 and Proposition NN succeed where others didn’t, according to advocates, lawmakers, and independent analysts. The Democratic wave brought out voters unhappy about wealth inequality, said Paul Teske, a professor in the University of Colorado Denver’s School of Public Affairs, and Eric Sondermann, an independent political

50+ Young People with the Sunrise Movement, Including Coloradans, Arrested at Schumer DC Office Demanding New Leadership and an End to the Filibuster

Press releases are provided to Yellow Scene Magazine. In an effort to keep our community informed, we publish some press releases in whole. Washington, DC – 54 young people, including several Coloradans, were arrested after sitting in at Chuck Schumer’s office demanding a new Senate Majority Leader and the abolition of the filibuster, which wealthy corporations and their political allies use to block expansions of healthcare, unions, and green jobs. Another 150 visited all Senate Democrat offices. In a statement delivered to senators, Sunrise argued that Democrats have a mandate to deliver on the economic populist agenda that propelled them to victory — but doing so will require abolishing the filibuster. They warned that Democrats could lose in 2028 unless they force Trump to veto popular legislation or negotiate concessions, both of which will be harder to achieve if the filibuster remains in place.

Forget Bear Lake, Visit The Western Region's Lesser-Known, High-Elevation Escape With Fishing And Clear Waters

Hike the easy 1.4-mile out-and-back trail at Rocky Mountain National Park, and you could find yourself standing at the edge of Bear Lake gazing at its sparkling alpine waters. Sure, this popular, high-elevation escape is worth seeing, but more than likely you'll be sharing the scenery with many other parkgoers. For a more peaceful retreat, head to Lizard Lake between Marble and the old mining town of Crystal, Colorado. Nestled quietly inside White River National Forest, this 5-acre backcountry lake is the kind of place where you can cast a line, hike secluded trails, and soak up the simple joys of being outdoors — without competing for parking or applying for seasonal online permits.
