As a beneficiary of reduced or free school lunch for most of my childhood and someone who hasn’t needed government subsidies since i graduated college.. I feel obligated to ensure the future generations never have to be food insecure. Yes from me.

I have no kids and, at 47 years old, will never have them. I still vote yes for every positive child-related proposition because I’m not a heartless degenerate

Colorado Proposition MM, Tax Deductions and Revenue for School Meals Measure (2025)
The Colorado Tax Deductions and Revenue for School Meals Measure is on the ballot in Colorado as a legislatively referred state statute on November 4, 2025.
A “yes” vote supports lowering the state income tax deduction limits for taxpayers earning $300,000 or more from $12,000 to $1,000 for single filers and from $16,000 to $2,000 for joint filers, generating an additional $95 million annually for the Healthy School Meals for All Program.
A “no” vote opposes lowering state income tax deduction limits to provide an additional $95 million annually Healthy School Meals for All Program, thereby leaving in place the current limits of $12,000 for single filers and $16,000 for joint filers.

What(if anything) can you do to safeguard our public lands against future attempts to sell/develop them?
Mike Lee’s recent horrible proposal was stopped for now, but that’s just a single battle in a war that’s definitely not over. There will be future attempts to do the same thing.

I am so grateful and glad the effort to sell off public lands was defeated (for now! we must stay vigilant.) I will continue to lobby against selling off our public lands.

Tampons are said to have existed for centuries, but the first person to patent the creation with an applicator was Denver resident, Dr. Earle Cleveland Haas. By using telescoping paper tubes, Dr. Haas was able to invent an applicator to make insertion simpler and more sanitary. In 1932, Dr. Haas trademarked the name Tampax, a combination of the terms “tampon” and “vaginal packs.”
A trend most of us didn’t see coming was spawned directly in Colorado from the minds of natives Scott Seamans, George Boedecker, Jr., and Lyndon “Duke” Hanson. The trio introduced the footwear as a boating shoe in 2002 and since then 850 million pairs of Crocs have been sold.
David Dwight (D.D.) Sturgeon is believed to be the person responsible for making outdoor Christmas lights a thing. Sturgeon founded his own electric company in 1912 and in 1914 is said to have dipped ordinary bulbs in red and green paint so that he could string the lights outside his ill son’s bedroom in an effort to cheer him up.

COLORADO — In a release from Saturday morning, Governor Jared Polis announced that the Canadian National Flag will be raised at the State Capitol to celebrate March 15 as Colorado Canada Friendship Day.
The capitol building will also be lit up this evening with the Canadian white and red.
“From maple syrup to hockey players and much more, we in Colorado appreciate our friendship and close ties with Canada. Raising the Canadian flag today is symbolic of our friendship, showing that when we work together, even in challenging times, we grow our economy and make the people of both sovereign nations better off. I am grateful for our friends to the north, and look forward to annually celebrating Colorado Canada Friendship Day.”
Polis’s office reports that Colorado exported $1.3 billion in goods, making up 18% of Colorado’s trade exports in 2023. They say that the relationship between Colorado and Canada benefits local farmers, ranchers, small business owners, and the tourism industry.

DENVER — Gov. Jared Polis signed HB24-1007 on Monday, prohibiting local governments from limiting the number of people who can live under one roof.
Previously, local governments were allowed to set occupancy limits for people who weren’t related to each other — no matter the size of the house.
There are a few exceptions in the new law. Local governments can enforce residential occupancy limits to follow fire code regulations and health and safety standards, or if the residence is part of an affordable housing program.
The new law will impact many people, including college students, partners who are not legally married and seniors living with non-immediate family members.
