The Working Families Party is a grassroots, multiracial party of working people coming together across our differences to make our nation work for the many, not the few. Carrie Olson is an incumbent who was first elected to the board in , and has 30 years of prior experience as a DPS teacher. She is also the parent of a DPS graduate. Olson would focus on issues such as: excessive standardized testing, inordinate administration costs, and the overarching issue of the segregation an inequity of access to quality education within the DPS system.

Olson believes there is too much privatization and focus on school choice and charter schools — which have increased school segregation — while neighborhood schools and their communities are left to flounder.

At a time when Colorado is still rebounding from several disasters, this amendment would effectively paralyze our state in times of future emergencies, when our government needs more flexibility and responsiveness, not less. It also risks over-politicization of ongoing state activities and reduces the influence of technical experts. When our budgeting system fails to produce evidence-based, timely solutions, the most marginalized Coloradans suffer and we miss opportunities to make critical long-term investments in public infrastructure.

We must find more nuanced solutions that promote both transparency and effective budgeting. Since , the Bell Policy Center has worked to advance economic mobility in Colorado. Today, we seek to answer a critical question: In a state that boasts one of the best economies in the country, why do so many feel unable to get ahead?

If you liked my post, feel free to subscribe to my rss feeds. Should they be housed? Should they be jailed? Should they be bussed to christian areas? We have pretty much accepted the idea the idea that everyone should have food and medical care, what about housing? John, No one has accepted anything. As to housing, certainly that should be considered by private entities such as the Salvation Army.

They know the people much better than the government ever would. But I am impressed by the out pouring of concern that you and Jeff show to unfortunates. So how much money do you give the charities and what proportion of your income does this represent. I know Jeff gives zip. I have a bio? Why is that? Five people filed suit. Out of how many? They interviewed how many? What should we do as a nation to address our homeless problem? Our homeless are veterans, addicts, the poor, the mentally ill and Americans out of options, etc.

The Salvation Army is not the answer. Some people want to build apartments and stuff. Others like the open space. Proponents- Save Open Space Denver, which wants to protect parks and open space in Denver from development. Opponents- Westside, the land developer of the space.

Westside argues that Northeast Park Hill has been historically marginalized as a predominantly Black neighborhood and that a citywide vote on this issue strips residents of their agency. The League also opposes earmarking, especially in this case to a specific institution. It would also make the people behind really mad. This initiative would make it illegal to camp on private property, which means the city could enforce its camping ban—which, by the way, a judge ruled is unconstitutional—on basically almost every type of property there is.

To be fair, it also allows the city to create up to four new camping locations on public property with lighting, running water and bathrooms. Nowhere mentioned: The chronic need for more affordable housing that would probably solve most of these problems instead of just band-aiding as usual. For added hilarity, the problem of homelessness has also really irritated a certain Denver-based paper, which also supports this measure.

Opponents- The Hancock administration has spoken out against this measure along with Denver City Council. The Colorado Coalition for the Homeless is also opposed. Enforcing the camping ban more severely will not only cost the city an extreme amount of resources, it will do nothing to provide housing solutions.

Unsheltered homelessness is a huge concern in Denver, but this initiative lacks a sustainable and equitable solution and would have far too many unintended consequences. Explained- This measure would lower the city sales and use tax, then cap it. Flicker said the measure would help low-income residents, who he believes are disproportionately impacted by higher sales taxes. Enjoyed this editorial? Help us keep the lights on!
