Over the past few weeks, the scholarly discourse that typifies Republican presidential primaries, especially in the era of Donald Trump, has lighted on a crowdsourced speculative inquiry into one burning question: Does Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis wear lifts inside his generously-apportioned cowboy boots? Former President Donald Trump, who is the leading candidate for the GOP […]
What do you need to know about new Speaker of the House Mike Johnson? Well, we’ll tell you in a moment. But there’s a shorter version of this answer: Congressperson Lauren Boebert is a YUGE fan of the four-term Republican from Louisiana. Boebert, in fact, stood literally right next to Johnson during his first press […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Applying a deep-state conspiracy theory to the Hamas terrorist attacks, a Colorado Republican lawmaker says it’s more likely than not that the U.S. and Israeli governments, both with “corrupt bureaucratic leadership,” knew in advance that the Oct. 7 Hamas attack was “about to happen.” “I don’t know for sure that our […]
UPDATE: So say we all: Debunking the Bigfoot video is bad for the sustainability of a profit-driven advertising-supported late-capitalist business model for local news, so make sure it doesn't happen — and if it does, do NOT put it in the headline — Corey Hutchins (@CoreyHutchins) October 12, 2023 We promise not to be the […]
In the twenty years since ProgressNow Colorado was originally organized as the Rocky Mountain Progressive Network, our state has witnessed an historic shift away from the far-right special interests that previously dominated the debate on every issue.

Today, ProgressNow Colorado, the state’s largest multi-issue grassroots advocacy organization, launched a new outreach campaign: Republicans Against Boebert.

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Over two years after the Jan. 6, insurrection, former Trump lawyer John Eastman — who’s facing disbarment in California — defended the mob, telling a right-wing podcaster in Colorado that some Jan. 6 insurrectionists were “people paid by news organizations to get video of violence so that that could build a […]

Throughout the 120 days of the recently-concluded Colorado legislative session, House Republicans generally stuck to a strategy of trying to waste as much time as possible in order to prevent a Democratic supermajority from accomplishing some of its goals. Relegated to a leaderless micro-minority, the House GOP caucus had no realistic policy plans of their […]
So far, 2023 has been a big year for PNC.

We worked directly to pass legislation […]
Controversy arose this week in the normally sleepy Western Slope town of Dolores, when a surprise appearance at Dolores High School by Rep. Lauren Boebert divided parents and raised both political and safety concerns. Reporter Bailey Duran at the Cortez Journal: Many parents opted to keep their children home amid concerns for their children’s safety […]

Four years ago, Republican Walker Stapleton lost an open race for Governor to Democrat Jared Polis by 11 points. A few weeks later, a photo emerged of a newly-bearded Stapleton smiling into a camera during a family vacation to Hawaii. Stapleton had been preparing to run for Governor for roughly a decade, so you could […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Colorado Republicans are saying they want to improve themselves, and a good way to move forward would be for the state’s top-money Republican, Phil Anschutz, to stifle the Colorado Springs Gazette’s impetuous and extremist editorial board, led by editor Wayne Laugesen. The Gazette board, and especially Laugesen, are a far-right drag […]
Coloradans have been consistently clear. We are tired of election deniers and conspiracy theorists. Pam Anderson, the Republican candidate for Secretary of State, kicked off her campaign claiming she was not “that kind of Republican.” But as this year has progressed, Anderson has shown her true colors–defending election deniers like Lt. Governor Danny Moore, and […]
On Monday, ProgressNow Colorado called for a new ad released by Republican congressional candidate Barb Kirkmeyer to be removed from circulation for falsely claiming that her opponent and the Democratic majority in the Colorado legislature “legalized fentanyl.” [1] There is absolutely no justification for Kirkmeyer’s claim that “Democrats legalized fentanyl.” That simply never happened. It’s […]
Republicans like Pam Anderson, Heidi Ganahl, and Joe O’Dea are still trying to fool Coloradans. While Heidi Ganahl says “Joe Biden is the President,” the Denver Post revealed this weekend that Ganahl ended an interview when asked about the 2020 Election and the Big Lie. [1] When faced with similar questions, Anderson (seeking the Secretary […]
Just over a week ago, ProgressNow Colorado launched our campaign calling on Joe O’Dea to release everyone who received settlement money attached to a nondisclosure agreement (NDA) from O’Dea’s company Concrete Express during the company’s long history of worker safety, fair pay, and discrimination cases so those victims can tell their stories. The response to […]
Republican Attorney General candidate John Kellner and his friends at the Republican Attorneys General Association (RAGA) have spent months making a big deal about the rise in auto thefts in Colorado.

Last week, ProgressNow Colorado held a press conference in front of the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment in downtown Denver with a long list of cases from injured parties—more than 20 different parties—that have filed lawsuits against O’Dea’s company Concrete Express.
