We first added “President” to The Big Line ahead of the 2016 election. We don’t try to predict the outcome of the nationwide race for President — only the outcome in this state — but we might be on to something with our current odds to win Colorado: As Harry Enten explains for CNN, […]
Opponents of legislation to prioritize health and safety in decisions about oil and gas development have focused their strategy on one very vague argument: That the process for deliberating Senate Bill 181 is happening too quickly. This is dumb. Complaining that a legislative approach is “too fast” is an intellectually lazy and intentionally ambiguous approach […]
Yesterday’s 12-hour hearing for Senate Bill 19-181, this year’s landmark legislation to return some control over oil and gas drilling to local communities as well as getting the state out of the business of “fostering” the industry over public health and safety, –the Grand Junction Sentinel’s Charles Ashby reports: Hundreds of people descended on the […]
Colorado Sen. Cory Gardner (R-Yuma) was a featured speaker recently at the 2019 BBYO International Convention in Denver, where he delivered a brief welcome speech that featured an oddly-timed choice of words. Gardner’s generally milquetoast remarks to the convention of Jewish teenagers wouldn’t be worth a mention if not for the dunderheaded clichés he decided to […]
Shannon Watts of the gun violence prevention group Moms Demand Action Tweets from a New Hampshire legislative committee hearing today: Male New Hampshire lawmakers on the hearing committee wearing pearls to mock @MomsDemand volunteers and gun safety advocates. #NHPolitics pic.twitter.com/rc1S3Bj9lG — Shannon Watts (@shannonrwatts) March 5, 2019 Don’t you get the joke? Moms (meaning women) clutch […]
Pro tip from Colorado Pols: If you set your clock ahead 10 minutes every day this week, you won’t have to make the full one-hour Daylight Saving adjustment on Sunday. It’s time to “Get More Smarter.” If you think we missed something important, please include the link in the comments below (here’s a good example). […]
Much discussion at the Colorado Capitol today about an email blast sent out yesterday afternoon by Republican Sen. Jerry Sonnenberg of Sterling. Sonnenberg’s well-earned reputation as a safe-seat blowhard nevertheless left recipients unprepared for the over-the-top vitriol exhibited in this shocking stream of consciousness decrying the “evil” playing out at the hands of majority Democrats […]
We wrote earlier today about efforts by oil and gas interests to delay legislation intended to prioritize the health and safety of Coloradans over profits or other motives in regulating oil and gas drilling operations. The O&G industry is pushing hard to establish a narrative of Democrats crafting Senate Bill 181 in secret and “rushing” […]
Last Friday, several of Colorado’s leading legislators on the issue of “defending the Second Amendment” including pistol-packing Rep. Lori Saine of Firestone sent a letter on official Capitol letterhead asking Weld County Commissioners to do something very unusual, especially coming from a state lawmaker: to declare the county a “sanctuary” where a law creating Extreme […]
Senator Rand Paul (R-Kentucky) declared over the weekend that he will vote in favor of a resolution opposing President Trump’s “emergency declaration” for border wall funding. As Paul said during a speech in Kentucky, “I can’t vote to give the president the power to spend money that hasn’t been appropriated by Congress.” Paul’s pledge means that […]
