“I'm a working mom who's in the trenches, with a special needs son”

“There was ballot access in March and then the primary and now on to the general election. Our goal has always been November.”

“This is certainly a win, but more than that, it's a milestone”

“Parental rights and education. Parents are the primary decision-makers for their children's education, full stop. I support school choice, whether that's public, charter, private or homeschool. I will oppose state mandates that override local school board decisions or remove parents from the process. As a mother of a son with Down syndrome, I have navigated our education system as an advocate. I know what it means when the system works and what it costs families when it doesn't.”

“Public safety. Too many policies coming out of the Capitol reduce consequences for criminals instead of protecting families. I will support law enforcement funding, oppose legislation that weakens accountability for repeat offenders and fight to restore consequences that actually deter crime. I've already worked alongside law enforcement leaders to advance legislation that supports officers and communities. That is why I've earned the endorsements of current and former sheriffs and the Colorado Fraternal Order of Police. That work continues on day one.”

“Colorado's affordability crisis is the direct result of seven years of single-party governance. Families in Loveland are paying more for housing, groceries and utilities. I will fight to protect TABOR, which returns excess revenue to taxpayers instead of growing government. I will oppose new mandates that drive up costs for businesses and families. And I will work to reduce the regulatory burden on energy and agriculture, two industries that power Northern Colorado's economy.”
