Reason for Seeking Public Office:
I am running for governor because Colorado deserves better than what we have gotten from the current administration. We live in an amazing state, with abundant natural resources, innovative entrepreneurs, and wonderful communities. Yet time and time again our elected leaders have pursued an extreme agenda without hitting the brakes. I want to lead our state to revive the energy, pride and enthusiasm that come with being a Coloradan. We can create more and better jobs, bring sanity to healthcare, and restore the promise of a great education for our children. It's time to stand up, and stand up right now. I hope you'll join me to build a stronger Colorado.
