PUC’ing polisites. Just an FYI… If you have an 80% efficiency furnace, It’ll take 71 years of heat-pump savings to pay back the install. The lifespan is around 20 years, so restart the 71 year clock every 20 years….so, “never” If you have a 97% efficiency furnace, you’ll

@GenXJenDen This is a civil rights violation. Tag @HarmeetKDhillon. Our seniors should not be forced to live next to meth cooks because our idiot state leaders would rather hide the issue than deal with the mess they've made. 🙏 @CivilRights @SecretaryTurner

The biggest flaw of the Housing First model is that it does not necessarily help people reach their full potential or become self-sufficient. Because there are no requirements to make any changes before receiving housing, individuals can obtain a home without addressing the

Injured in a car accident? Finding a lawyer is easy. Billboards and radio ads point the way. Denver and State of CO fund lawyers to fight eviction and secure legal status for newcomers, but who fights for justice for people like Mary Anna? Lawyers: who can she turn to? Who is

DORA represents the ultimate in Colorado government overreach and wasteful spending. Per the latest JBC hearing: -Oversees 10 divisions, licenses 1.1M individuals (25% of the state’s population!) -Regulates over 82k entities -Burns through a $142.6M budget with 730 FTEs.

In Cory’s detailed report about the push by Democrats and the PUC to electrify Colorado and eliminate natural gas he lists all the ways you can submit public comments, attend upcoming (virtual) PUC meetings and more. Send written comments today, add the meetings to your 📆.

@RepBoebert We don't want any agendas or more politics out of it. Just leave it be. Republicans in Colorado are guilty of falling for green energy scams because it meant donations in their pockets.

City of Denver taxpayers are about to dole out $70 million for one man’s soccer dreams. In the IGA, Denver could retain 10% of the TIF. So generous. I wonder if that includes DPS’s share on the property tax side. I know grand plans for the old Gates site crashed in 2008 and

“When a high-volume, cash-flow-positive nightclub can no longer justify staying open “due to insurmountable local challenges,” that tells you everything about foot traffic, perceived safety, and disposable income in the core.” Good analysis of Downtown’s woes, caused by local
@dobetterdnvr @MikeJohnstonCO Riot House isn’t an isolated casualty—it’s the canary in the coal mine. Downtown Denver is staring down a cascading commercial collapse: 22–25 % office vacancy (highest in the nation outside of Houston), plunging lease rates, and now even the handful of nightlife anchors that

Jared Polis is an Authoritarian Politician who is BANNING natural gas from homes, eliminating fossil fuel energy production, infringing on our right to self-defense, controlling what appliances we can buy and much more...
In my 20s, someone told me Colorado is the best state in the nation… and I’ve spent my time in public service making sure it stays that way.

These estimates for the City of Denver revenue growth are way too high.
🚨 Due to "numerous ongoing challenges in downtown Denver," Riot House has officially closed as of 12/5. Another blow to our city as businesses keep fleeing bad policies. Mayor @mikejohnstonco's big idea to revive downtown? Convert empty offices into "affordable housing." This

...This is just the first salvo in a war that some of us have warned is coming. We cannot be passive at this moment. American anti-free speech figures like Hillary Clinton are hoping that the EU can achieve from abroad what they have failed to accomplish in the United States.

Have you ever wondered what it’s like for the elderly when the Mayor’s and the Gov’s Housing First and Harm Reduction ideology moves the street next door? Listen to Mary Anna. She lives in a Denver Housing Authority property. A voucher keeps her in her unit. Policy injured her.

It's an insane abuse of authority and ABSOLUTELY NOT THE PROPER ROLE OF GOVERNMENT!
Colorado plans to phase out natural gas heating in homes, prompting many reader questions. We have answers. https://t.co/wYSDCiLIdL via @mboothdenver #copolitics #coleg

Given the Minnesota scandal, it’s definitely becoming clearer as to why the Dem state Governors are suing to try to stop the Federal Government from discovering where those hundreds of billions in federal aid has gone.
How will the American People react when they realize the situation with Minnesota is not a singular case? Wait until the fraud from all Governors is revealed collectively.

“Real recovery is death to an NGO’s business model.” As Annemarie aptly describes, our current system is designed to keep people sick and dependent. Denver’s new performance based contracts with providers rewards throughputs.
Recovery, by contrast, is a financial catastrophe. A recovered person vanishes from the books. They stop generating billable interactions. They stop requiring endless interventions. They cease to be a warm body in a case conference. They walk out the door carrying their dignity
