Responsible Growth: Vows to protect the natural resources and open vistas while stewarding the responsible development needed. Will support land-use policies that prioritize working farms and ranches while pursuing responsible development. By grounding decisions in science and supporting balanced growth, will protect our lands and ensure Colorado maintains the natural beauty, wildlife habitat, and recreational opportunities.

Attainable Housing: Even with hard work, the prospect of a fulfilling life and the security of home ownership is drifting further out of reach. For those who own homes, rising insurance premiums, property taxes, metro district fees, and utility bills are swallowing more of the family paycheck. Many are trapped in a cycle of rent, unable to build equity for their future. The people of HD64, our teachers, first responders, and working families, deserve better.

Sustainable Water Use: Opposes "buy and dry" practices that strip agricultural land of its water rights to fuel growth elsewhere. Towns and cities cannot be left to solve water scarcity issues that developers create. Has concerns about data centers locating here without honest accounting of their water consumption. Water in this district belongs to the people who live here and the farmers who have stewarded it for generations.

Paths to Prosperity: Would push for wages that keep pace with the cost of living, ensure larger employers provide health insurance for more of their workers, make public universities affordable again, and support training in the trades, giving every student a path to a good career.

Residents vs Metro Districts: Authorized but unissued debt by metro districts exceeds $1 trillion. There is little transparency around Metro District Boards and buyers are not properly informed of the ramifications before purchasing a home in a Metro District, leaving developers to double dip and burden residents with soaring debt repayment taxes. I am actively working to find avenues for residents to take back control of their neighborhoods and curb the unchecked growth of Metro Districts.
