Since being elected four years ago, I have proudly served the people of House District 35 as your Democratic State Representative. During that time, I jhave proven myself to be a knowledgeable legislator. So much so, that I was appointed to a leadership position. Chair of the House Local Government Committee, by the Speaker of the House, The Honorable Terrance Carroll. I am also a member of the House Education Committee.
During the past four years I have made great progress in learning to know the people and the processes down at the State Capitol. I have carried and supported bills to conserce our resources, strengthen our schools and energize our economy. I have worked with many groups to build consensus on good policy for Colorado. While doing this I have really strived to work with both my Democratic colleagues and my Republican colleagues, because cooperation is a value many of you have told me is important to you as it is me.
What is most important to me is that during the last 4 years I have learned to know many of you by attending home owners and association meetings, helping to solve several constituent problems, visiting businesses, attending many communitgy events, and walking door to door throughout District 35. I know the people of this district, and I care about what your care about.
We have great challenges ahead of us- our schools are over-burdened by testing, our school buildings are in need of repair, our traffic problems are increasing and over 700,000 citizens do not have healthcare. Some of these problems we will need our voters to decide, some we will do everything in our power and in the budget to improve. As legislators we have really reached out to groups of experts and everyday folks to help solve these issues. It takes all of us. We are all the government!
