As your state representative in Colorado for house 58 I am so proud of the Montrose County Commissioners for fighting for the people that elected them. It’s time to stop this nonsense that Colorado division of wildlife is proposing in their meeting next week.

Colorado Governor Jared Polis is right! A massive tax increase on this year’s ballot will “destroy Colorado” and be “devastating” to our economy! Activists who support Big Government are trying to take another $2.7 Billion A YEAR out of the Colorado economy! Amendment 87 must be opposed and Colorado voters need to understand what a disaster it would be for our state!

Arizona seeks remand without vacating the 2027–2028 guidelines to preserve near-term predictability; Nevada seeks full vacatur, and Arizona raises state-specific economic and operational concerns.

This should be a huge National Story, especially with Jena Griswold involved. Heres how it went down. Democrats tried to gerrymander the vote for the COCO TRAIN and passed SB26-172 in May that cut the rail tax district from 4.4 million people to 2.6 million, dropping Conservative Cities while keeping friendlier cities they thought would vote for it. But they sent out the wrong maps and the ballots were never updated. Now Jena Griswold’s plan is to count 7A only inside that SB26-172 map, ignore the mark on ineligible ballot styles, and hand-review Bow Mar and Sterling Ranch, where the style cannot tell voters apart. Does anyone trust that this is going to be done correctly? And did anyone know they can set tabulators to ignore votes of certain people on certain issues? That seems like a very risky proposition……. #copolitics #colorado #freetinapeters @realtinapeters @Joeoltmann @PatriotMarkCook @heidiganahl @TheRMVoice @EFFE4USA @FSociety_1942 @Unite4Freedom

After nearly 50 years of operating in Hulett, Bearlodge Forest Products has announced it will shut down after Oct. 31. “This is an absolute blow” to a community with deep ties to Wyoming’s timber industry, says Sen. Ogden Driskill. tinyurl.com/4pa4wbva

“This management decision rests on a sentence in the Record of Decision for the Aspinall Unit’s environmental impact statement, designed to protect endangered fish, that says “the minimum downstream flow through the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park and Gunnison Gorge National Conservation Area is 300 cfs, except in severe drought when the flow may decrease.” aspenjournalism.org/gunnison…

COLORADO’S BALLOT IS FINAL People keep asking how I am voting on the statewide ballot measures. Here it is, plain and simple. ✅ AMENDMENT 81: YES If someone is charged with a violent crime and police cannot determine whether they are legally in this country, federal immigration authorities should be notified. ✅ AMENDMENT 82: YES You should have the right to use natural gas to heat your home, cook your food, or run your business. Government should not take that choice away. ✅ AMENDMENT 83: YES, WITH RESERVATIONS This puts the right to hunt and fish in the Colorado Constitution. It also says hunting and fishing are a preferred way to manage wildlife. I do not like all the power it still leaves with the state, but protecting hunting in our Constitution is better than leaving it completely exposed. ✅ AMENDMENT 84: YES Mail ballots should require voter identification. If information is missing or wrong, the voter will have a chance to fix it. ✅ AMENDMENT 85: YES Ballot questions should be written in plain English. Voters should not need a lawyer to understand what they are voting on. ✅ AMENDMENT 86: YES Politicians should not be able to redraw congressional districts in the middle of the decade just to help their own party. ❌ AMENDMENT 87: NO This ends Colorado’s flat income tax, creates tax rates as high as 8.4 percent, and increases state taxes by an estimated $2.7 billion every year. Government already takes and spends enough. ❌ PROPOSITION NN: NO They say it does not raise taxes. What it really does is let the state keep billions of dollars that could otherwise be returned to taxpayers through TABOR. The education promises focus on ten years, but the higher government spending limit is permanent. ✅ PROPOSITION 132: YES Fentanyl is killing people and destroying families. Dealers need stronger punishment, and people addicted to fentanyl need real treatment. ✅ PROPOSITION 133: YES Anyone who knowingly buys or sells sexual activity involving a child deserves life in prison. ✅ PROPOSITION 134: YES Girls deserve fair sports. Female sports should be based on biological sex. ✅ PROPOSITION 135: YES Children cannot understand or consent to permanent, life changing surgery. Adults can make their own decisions. Children need protection. ✅ PROPOSITION 136: YES This caps Colorado’s income tax rate at 4.4 percent. Government can lower the tax rate, but it cannot raise it above 4.4 percent. ❌ PROPOSITION 137: NO This lets the state keep about $175 million a year that could otherwise be returned through TABOR. It locks that money into government controlled conservation programs. In Colorado, “conservation” too often becomes restrictions, closed roads, and locked gates. There it is. 11 YES votes. 3 NO votes. Read them for yourself. Make your own decision. Then vote. #SeanPond

#ColoradoRiver Reservoir Reality - Critical elevations updated to new ROD - Lake Mead is at 1038',will lose most of its turbines and 900 MW of power at 1035'. That's in 264,000 AF - Lake Powell is at 3518', critical elevation is 3510', 3490' matters - May need more from FG

If you wonder why the #ColoradoRiver "experts" have done jack to fix the crisis, here is one saying there isn't a crisis and AZ will use Colorado River water they've banked to mitigate shortages caused by the 13.1 MAF of Colorado River water they've banked

“We have a violation of the compact either today or within the next month,” Goddard said… the Upper Basin is falling short of that obligation for the first time in the compact’s history, releasing only 6 million acre-feet this year”. Umm @usbr did that. ktar.com/arizona-water-news/…

This video is for the weak, shallow people who call themselves Republicans while spending all their time attacking other Republicans, spreading doubt, feeding division and tearing this party apart from within. You know exactly who you are, and by now, everyone else does too. You blame the candidates, the party and the system, but the truth is much simpler. You are the reason we keep losing. You are helping destroy the Republican Party, and you are handing Colorado to the Democrats one pathetic attack at a time. Watch the video. Then look in the mirror. This belongs squarely on your shoulders.

Near term #ColoradoRiver @SNWA_H2O district court APA/NEPA filing • Service of the complaint/summons on federal defendants. • Federal response window (typically 60 days for the U.S./agencies under FRCP 12(a)). • Possible early motions (e.g., for preliminary injunction/stay of the ROD if Nevada seeks urgent relief(unlikely); motions to dismiss or transfer). • Administrative record production and briefing on the merits (APA review is usually on the record). • Status conferences or scheduling orders once a judge is assigned and parties appear. The near-term ROD/Lower Basin plan elements are likely to remain in effect unless/until a court enjoins them. Litigation could take months to years for a district decision; appeals would go to the Ninth Circuit. Outcomes could range from uphold, vacate/remand for more NEPA analysis, or partial relief. Parallel political negotiations among states/Interior are possible. Other states or parties may intervene or file related suits.
