Colorado’s rich people trying their hardest to continue not paying their fair share. 87 cuts income taxes for about 97% of taxpayers while increasing rates only for individuals and businesses with taxable income over $500,000.

The non-partisan tax foundation found that high income taxes hurt growth. It’s critical that Colorado voters reject Amendment 87 which would make Colorado the 9th highest taxed state. It’s not to late to vote No on amendment 87

It cannot be overstated how much red tape Republicans added to the process of getting Medicaid and SNAP. Millions of people who literally qualify for these programs are being kicked off them, despite qualifying, because of all the red tape Grassley voted to add to them.

If you are filling out your ballot tonight and looking at Prop 133 (Human Trafficking), it is important to know that victim advocates, anti-trafficking groups, and child advocacy centers are opposed to it ...

The very quickest way to squander it is to not actually deliver real policy wins for working class people. And that's true not just of Dems at the federal level, every single state and local elected needs to be part of that project in the lead up to 2028.

Every national Democratic leader should be on fire about the disgusting, overt racist abuse the right subjects Angie to and moving heaven and earth to support her campaign. Jigsaw may get Trump’s invitation on Air Force One for talking like this, but Angie’s race is winnable.

Cannot overstate how anathema it is to everything we are supposed to stand for that the president is trying to denaturalize his political enemy. It’s unamerican, it’s dictatorial, and it deserves to be rebuked as vehemently as possible.

BREAKING WSJ: The Trump admin's investigation into Rep. Ilhan Omar is aimed at building a case to strip her of her U.S. citizenship and ultimately deport her, according to U.S. officials and other people familiar with the probe. wsj.com/politics/policy/ilha…

Ilhan Omar Investigation Aims to Build Case for Stripping Her Citizenship

Authorities have subpoenaed members of the Democratic congresswoman’s family as part of a broader look at their immigration paperwork.

Troy Jackson: "Sen. Collins says that she voted against it 9 times, but she didn't have the votes. Well, that sounds like then we probably ought to have Democrats in charge of the Senate so we have the votes to stop this war and hold Donald Trump in check. It sounds like Republicans won't do that."

At @CommChangeAct we’ve been saying income — not education (although there’s lots of interplay) is the key. That’s why we are targeting voters making the national median average and below.
Ethan C7@ECaliberSevenOct 11
Buried in this piece: According to data from The Argument, Dem gains are EXTREMELY correlated with income, to an INSANE degree. Those making $200K+ are only swinging 4% bluer, while on the other end, those making <$25K have swung a whopping SIXTEEN POINTS BLUER!

NEW: Uh-oh for CoCo. The yet-to-be-built train for the Front Range Passenger Rail District is seeking a sales tax from voters in 13 Colorado counties. But in three of those counties - Adams, Douglas & Weld - some voters are seeing it on their ballot when they shouldn't.

We got a million Coloradans crushed by medical debt. Teachers living counties away from where they work. Lots of work to do, but it starts with fixing our broken tax system. YES ON 87 protectcoloradosfuture.com/

Yes on 87 | Protect Colorado's Future

Vote YES on 87, the Income Tax Fairness Act. Cut taxes for 97% of Coloradans and protect funding for schools, health care and child care.

If Republicans win the House of Representatives and the Senate in the 2026 Midterm Elections, I’m going to give all adult citizens in the United States of America, $5,000! Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to signing those checks!
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This repeats a promise Trump made in September 2026. The US has approximately 250 million adult citizens so the total cost would be over 1.25 trillion dollars. Congress must approve any such federal spending. nytimes.com/2026/09/10/us/… pbs.org/newshour/polit…

An erasure poem of District Attorney Matthew Van Houten’s explanation for why the Cornell Seven were not criminally prosecuted. The materials sent to the prosecutor by campus police were missing Jane’s assertions that she was raped. Staggering. In this poem, I decided to omit the document to unerase Jane’s truth within it.

A conservative dark money group is running Prop 132 asking voters to put more Coloradans in prison for fentanyl. Is it backed by people who make money off private prisons? Don’t know. It’s dark money.
