Gail Schoettler lines out why she is supporting Referendums C and D in November, in today's Denver Post [August 28, 2005, "Vote for family, Colorado"]. She writes, "Words are flying furiously on both sides of Referendums C and D, ostensibly telling voters the virtues or failings of each. The business community says they're good for business and that's good for us. Tax-haters say they're a gigantic tax increase and that's bad for everyone. Neither side is telling us why their arguments matter to us individually. Yet, voters ultimately vote on what is best for themselves and their families."
Representative Mark Larson (R-Cortez) intends to introduce legislation to punish, "campaign committees that dodge requirements to disclose their donors," according to the Cortez Journal. From the article, "Larson will co-sponsor the bill when the Legislature returns in January with Sens. Ron Teck, R-Grand Junction, and Steve Johnson, R-Loveland. The bill will allow a district court to stop an issue committee from spending or receiving money if it intentionally does not file required reports, according to a press release from the trio."
