Affordability

My opponent praises his accomplishments of passing laws for affordable housing. In helping low-income people afford housing and groceries. To make Colorado affordable.

So why are we in the situation we are in now?

- In 2013, the sale of marijuana was passed with the promise to bring revenue to this great state. Money was going to help with school funding and other public services. Where is all this money going to now?

- Millions of dollars went into the widening of I-70 which took many years. All just to open one Toll Lane? So where are our vehicle registration fees going too? It is like charging a tax to make it home quicker after the tax that I have already paid.

I stand by my words when I say," Cutting taxes will put more money in people's pockets".

I am not a career politician and I alone can not solve everything. But I have lived here long enough to see how our citizens can not afford to live here. What we need to do is lower the state and property taxes. We need to put a cap on the amount of food stamps that are allowed to be granted and also government housing. People should feel grateful for the assistance and motivated to succeed. Nobody should be dependent on the government.  Hundreds of thousands of migrants have come to our state. In the summer of 2024, the Denver mayor said that they will provide up to I believe 4 months of paid rent and 6 months of payments of $1,000 per person (not including food stamps). Governor Polis has contributed to assisting the mayor with funding (your taxes). All this and they can't help our people. Why should Coloradans have to compete with Migrants who have not contributed to our community? 

- I will make it a goal to cut your property tax by at least 20% in my first term. If our current government can house migrants, then they should have enough funds to assist Coloradans.
