Issue Position

Colorado must continue to move strongly toward a clean future. Global climate change is real and human-caused, and we are already feeling its effects.

We must support more sustainable energy practices and make oil and gas practices safer. This includes:

addressing air and water quality impacts associated with
oil and gas operations
boosting safety and reporting requirements to ensure accidents like Firestone don't happen again
putting the power back into communities to allow them to dictate how they want their land used and developed
protecting public lands to secure them for generations to come
giving local governments broader authority to regulate land use
