STATE CAPITOL UPDATE--May 28, 2008 In 2008, Kids Were the Winners Looking back on the 2008 legislative session, I'm struck by how much we accomplished - especially how much we accomplished for Colorado's kids. The 2008 legislature will be remembered for the action we took to ensure our kids have a healthy environment, a great education, affordable health care, and the tools they will need to

On this beautiful autumn Saturday afternoon, October 6, 2007, I am reminded why Fort Collins has been named the best place in the nation to live. It truly is a magnificent day in Colorado. I'm also reminded that it has been a month since my last legislative update. After an enjoyable bicycle ride with my wife, Kathy, on what is forecast to be the last warm day for awhile, I write to catch you

Spring Quilts Under the Dome Spring has sprung at the Capitol! Warm breezes (some would call it hot air) and spring showers have graced the building's exterior with greening lawns and flowering trees. Inside, the Capitol is decorated with dozens of hand-made quilts on display through the month of April. In addition, the dome is once again open to the public after being closed for several years
