Colorado House Majority Project

End of 2014 Session

Once again, the Democratic House Majority that you built in 2012 rolled up our sleeves and got to work building a better Colorado. Because of your support we were able to make historic investments in both K-12 and higher education for the first time in a decade, continue our work to create good-paying jobs for hardworking Colorado families, and put politics aside to help the victims of 2013’s devastating floods and fires recover and rebuild.

With the passage of the Student Success Act and other education bills we took a huge chunk out of the so-called “Negative Factor” cuts that were made during the Great Recession, boosting funding for Colorado schools by nearly $500 million – the single largest investment in public education in a decade.

We also invested $100 million in our state colleges and universities and capped tuition increases at 6% per year, so that Colorado students can get their degree without being saddled with debt upon graduation. We know that a quality, affordable education is the best way to give our kids a fair shot at the American Dream, and we invested every penny we could to build world-class public schools in Colorado.

Without a Democratic majority, we couldn’t have done any of this for Colorado. Please click here and support a Democratic majority in the State House with your contribution of $5, $10, or $25 right now.

But having a Democratic majority isn’t just about moving Colorado forward; it’s also about protecting Coloradans from attempts by out-of-touch Tea Party Republicans to impose their radical views on our state. Once again, we saw multiple bills from Republican Leadership to outlaw all abortions, even in the case of rape or incest, and ban common forms of birth control. We killed bill after bill that tried to take public school funding away from our kids and hand it over to ultra-rich Republican special interests and CEOs. We stopped extremist attacks on our Renewable Energy Standard from big coal and big oil, so that Colorado’s New Energy Economy can continue creating thousands of clean energy jobs and gigawatts of green energy.

We need your help today to protect our majority and keep Colorado moving forward. Please donate $5, $10, or $25 to show your support!

Keeping Democrats in the majority in the House is critical for continuing to build a better Colorado so that every family has a fair shot at the American Dream.

Sincerely,

Mark Ferrandino Speaker of the House Colorado House of Representatives
