Pledge to fight any more Colorado recalls

Here in Colorado, Republicans are trying to distract us from pressing issues, like recovery from the recent devastating floods and the fiscal debate in Washington, with even more costly and unnecessary recall elections. Right-wing extremists have been losing elections in Colorado year after year, even in so-called "wave years," but by targeting individual legislators and suppressing the vote, Republicans think they have found a way to tip the scales to their advantage.

Enough is enough. From D.C. to Denver, the right wing is bent on destruction. They are willing to hurt millions of people, endanger the economy, and undermine democracy to achieve their goals. We oppose any more senseless and destructive recalls in Colorado.

Why is this important?

A little over a week ago, a new right-wing recall petition process began against another good progressive Colorado lawmaker, Senator Evie Hudak of Arvada. If these extremists manage to take out just one more progressive Senator, the radical right will take control of the Colorado Senate.
