Issue Position: End TABOR and Protect our Constitution

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2016
Issues: Constitution Government Budget and Spending

Our government is handcuffed by the effects of TABOR, which was added to our constitution in 1992. The provisions make it difficult for the state to adjust to continuously changing economic conditions and reduce the revenue available that could be used to improve infrastructure and fund education. Simply put, time has shown that TABOR makes governing Colorado in a reasonable way extremely difficult.

This is why I have pledged to join the lawsuit to repeal TABOR on my first day in office. All of our families have felt the negative consequences of TABOR for far too long. It's time we get our government and our state back on track.
