Boulder County Democrats

Our statement on the attacks in Boulder.

Today, we stood with concerned voters outside of Gabe Evans Northglenn’s office to urge him to vote against the Trump-backed resolution that would cut healthcare access and take food off of Coloradans’ tables in order to fund tax giveaways to Republican’s billionaire backers and corporate donors. Nearly 73,000 of Evans’ constituents would be at risk of losing healthcare if he votes for the Republican resolution. You can sure as hell bet they won’t forget that next time Evans is on the ballot.

We are fortunate to have had as many years with President Carter as we did. As President, he helped us move on from an era of American history punctuated by the Watergate scandal with his positivity, grace, and calm. In the years following his presidency, he set a high bar for the service we should expect of our former presidents alongside his beloved wife and incredible public servant, First Lady Rosalynn Carter. From his community-changing work building homes with The Carter Work Project and Habitat for Humanity, to his dedication to peace and courage in calling out injustice at home and across the world, President Carter exemplified the best of us. His life and his service to the United States reminds us that we are bigger than our politics and his reminder that “to be true to ourselves, we must be true to others” is a lesson we should hold close as we enter the new year. We wish his loved ones peace, and extend our gratitude and appreciation to the entire Carter family for sharing Jimmy with us all.

Since Election Day, we’ve taken some time to think and reflect on the outcome of the election. As a Party, we need to hear from you. We are curious to learn from your thoughts, questions, and feelings about the state of our Party, our state, and our country. If you have a moment, please take our survey and share your thoughts. We’re all ears: secure.ngpvan.com/AMRqgzI7M0…
