With the Primary Election just weeks away, my campaign committee has been quite busy. This campaign has given me a great opportunity to get to know the people that make up House District 30, and find out what their real issues, concerns and hopes are. I have met some really wonderful people who have been kind enough to share their stories and ideas with me as I work to develop a strategy that reflects the needs and the interests of the people in our community, and in Colorado as a whole.
I sincerely appreciate the help and hard work of all of my supporters and volunteers. We all believe that now is the time to stand up and fight for the values we believe in; to meet the needs of working families, give our children the education they deserve, and win this seat back for the Democratic Party. Your support is crucial to the success of this election.
