Prop HH Defeated Thanks to Our Efforts

This Win Belongs to You

Proposition HH was soundly defeated at the polls last week. Working together with Denver Republican Women and Americans for Prosperity, our phone bank outreach succeeded in educating voters about this deceptive and harmful ballot measure. Colorado taxpayers stood strong against backdoor tax hikes. This victory demonstrates the power of grassroots activism. When we come together as a party, we can achieve great things. Thank you to all who phone banked and volunteered their time and energy.

School Board Election Shows Power of Grassroots Outreach

Change Wins

The candidates endorsed by Denver Families Action for Public Schools prevailed in the recent Denver school board election, securing a brighter future for DPS students, families, and teachers. Kimberlee Sia, Marlene De La Rosa, and John Youngquist won their races, representing a victory for experienced, qualified leadership ready to get DPS back on track. The candidates endorsed by the Denver Families Action for Public Schools organization prevailed in the recent Denver school board election.

This demonstrates the influence of parental engagement groups like Denver Families in shaping the future of our schools. After years of divisive politics that pitted communities against each other, this election showed voters rejecting that approach by electing candidates focused on students, not ideology. Denver Families Action's tireless grassroots outreach of thousands of doors knocked, and phone calls made allowed them to connect directly with voters about their education priorities. This community-powered effort paved the way for real change.

Prop HH Defeated, Help Us Keep Up the Fight

Proposition HH was Defeated Thanks to Grassroots Activism

On October 23rd, Denver County Republicans joined the Denver Republican Women and Americans for Prosperity to educate voters about this deceitful ballot measure.

The event kicked-off with an inspirational talk from Ben Murrey of the Independence Institute. Dedicated volunteers like you came together, armed with the facts, to call voters across Colorado. After making calls, we watched the lively debate that drove home the dire implications of Prop HH.

This victory belongs to us all. Your support made this possible. We must keep up the fight against government overreach and encroachments on our rights. With your help, we can build on this momentum to achieve even greater victories. But we need resources to organize more events, train volunteers, and get out the vote.

Will you donate today to empower our efforts? Every dollar makes a difference. With your backing, we can leverage our grassroots passion to promote the principles we hold dear - faith, family, freedom, and more.

This election proved that the voice of the people can still reign supreme. When we come together and take action, we can accomplish anything. Help support more victories for the Republican cause with your generous contribution. Together, we can secure our freedoms and opportunities. Please donate today!

Another Micro-Community Bites the Dust

The city of Denver's plan to build micro-communities for the homeless continues to crumble. Mayor Mike Johnston recently announced that a proposed site in Virginia Village has been scrapped after the private landowner pulled out of the deal. This marks the third canceled location, as owners of two other private properties also withdrew their offers. Johnston is now even further from meeting his goal of housing 1000 people by 2024. With half of the original ten proposed sites on privately owned land now dead, the burden disproportionately falls on public property. As Johnston's grand solution unravels, Denver still desperately needs real, comprehensive strategies to address rising homelessness.
