@mmdd2006 @cdegruykennedy @MichaelCLFields Disdain for citizens = never giving them an opportunity to weigh in on important civic decisions, like whether we should invest more or less in education and health care.

@LisaWeil1 @cdegruykennedy @MichaelCLFields Colorado is a literal shithole. The progressives have shown complete disdain for the citizens. This will just accelerate Colorado’s race to the bottom as the upper tax brackets make their exit.

Tax Hike Alert: The far left is going to try again to raise taxes on the ballot. To do it, they’ll have to repeal a major part of TABOR. This measure will chase even more revenue and jobs out of the state. We’ll have to defeat it! #copolitics #coleg

Go ahead and get the signatures to try to change the Constitution. The last time @BellPolicy tried to do a progressive income tax hike, nobody signed and they wasted $1M. #copolitics

Oh hey, it's the guy who's entire job it is to run ballot initiatives that change statutes and the constitution telling me that we can't do the same thing. Only Conservatives are allowed to change things. Democrats and Progressives are only able to stand by and watch.

People ask why my opinions on the war changed. All the death and destruction in Gaza and seeing people I used to respect justify it profoundly altered me as a human being. Then seeing people deported because they are against these actions has shocked me to my core. I’m amazed more Zionists don’t feel the same way.

This is the bottom line—vouchers hurt our students the most by taking away dollars from public schools. Without funding, public schools can’t give students the support they need to learn, grow, and thrive. Learn more about how vouchers hurt students: bit.ly/PEER-Voucher-R…

@GeorgeBrauchler @cdegruykennedy If #coleg referred & voters passed an increase in the tax rate for income over $1M, it would be struck down for violating TABOR. If YOU trust the voters, urge GOP legislators to help refer a constitutional measure that would change TABOR to allow them to pass a millionaire's tax.

@cdegruykennedy The hardest question for you and the anti-TABOR crowd is this: why don’t you trust Coloradans to decide if and when to give more of their hard earned money to state government?

Having read the Constitution, I welcome this debate. TABOR 8(a), pasted below, says: -- The very wealthy pay the same rate as regular working people (including on their capital gains income) -- The largest corporations pay the same rate as regular working people #copolitics

@cdegruykennedy You are lying. TABOR doesn’t prohibit higher taxes in any group. It simply and appropriately prohibits the big government Liberals from taxing whomever they want for whatever they want until the taxpayers have approved it. Why don’t you trust Colorado voters to decide?

@GeorgeBrauchler @cdegruykennedy If @cdegruykennedy is lying, then tell me this. If the legislature referred and the voters passed a statutory tax on personal and corporate income above $1 million, would you say that is constitutional under TABOR?

TABOR prohibits higher tax rates on millionaires, which is why they only pay 7% of their income in taxes while the middle class pays btwn 8.5-9.9%. We believe that most hardworking Coloradans need a tax cut, and that the rich (who keep getting richer) should pay more. #copolitics
Chris deGruy Kennedy@cdegruykennedy

The idea that TABOR protects taxpayers is laughable. It protects the wealthy at the expense of adequate funding for public education, healthcare, and other programs that create opportunities for hardworking Coloradans. Let's remind our friends what TABOR really is. #copolitics

McMahon goes on record saying private schools funded by taxpayer vouchers—including a federal voucher scheme—do and should have the right to turn children away if those children don’t fit those private schools’ needs. It’s not parent choice. It’s the school’s choice.

This well-done story by @brianeason highlights the absurdity of TABOR and how it contorts what should be good news. While low inflation is good for our pocketbooks, it's dropping the TABOR cap and crowding out funding for critical services. #copolitics #coleg bit.ly/3XMRp83
