One correction, though. Rep. McNulty proved last May that your “opponents would stop at nothing to kill civil unions.” Now he and the rest of them will stop at…the bang of the gavel from each and Dem committee chair.
Stuff’s gettin’ done this year, no doubt.
For me personally, first 2 in no order other than alphabetical are:
Civil Unions and Dream Act
Rep Ramirez really messed up on the Dream Act last time around, cost him the race thank gosh. He blames his loss on reapportionment but funny enough Mario Nicolais the most outspoken Republican on the Reapportionment Commission (I attended most of the commission meetings) was and is an advocate of Civil Unions and the Colorado version of the Dream Act. One word former Rep. Ramirez.
Doh!
Such as the Dems targeting him so hard because he was the 33rd Republican seat in the last Assembly. Well, you know, it was a symbolic victory to go after him, but he was also low hanging fruit for the Dems too.

They’ll be coming…
It is fun, and it is fun during hearings to know the minority has nothing to do to change the path of good bills and the fate of the minority bills. Of course having been in the minority makes one fill with desire to never be in the minority again.
When this becomes law, it will delay “marriage equality” by at least a decade.
This WAS a great idea two+ years ago.
It is not TODAY.
TODAY, we need to repeal Amendment 2 and go for full equality.
As soon as repeal is on the ballot, it will get removed. And the first session after that we’ll have full equality for marriage. This has shifted big-time.
But Civil Liberties are rarely won in one fell swoop. Progress. And I agree with David I believe it will be way less than 10 years.
A year or two of civil unions and the bottom will drop out from the opposition. That seems to be the result in other states.
And we should take a moment to thank Frank McNulty. Yes he delayed civil unions by a year. But he also turned Colorado from purple to blue. And that will have a giant impact over the next 10 years.
But does this mean the anus-is-exit lady is coming back to testify?
She really pissed me off- and not one member of that committee called her out.
