Colorado Confidential: "Flanked by more than a dozen supportive educators and lawmakers from both sides of the aisle, Ritter, a first term Democrat, called House Speaker Andrew Romanoff's proposal the best way forward to secure funding for education, while giving lawmakers more flexibility when it comes to setting budget priorities.
