As we head into committee today with Colorado’s rail safety bill, NPR’s Fresh Air explains why it is so vital and urgent we address safety right now. #coleg #copols #copolitics npr.org/2024/02/08/119796291…

The state house honoring Dr. King under the portrait of Barney Ford - a key African American leader in Colorado that shaped the state especially our early commitment to anti-discrimination. We have not always lived up to Ford’s vision, we are better for that guiding light. #coleg

This isn’t “classy,” this is a carefully-worded, union busting consultant-written statement that paints unionization as a failure of a company, when a union simply balances out a power dynamic in negotiations.
This is an anti-union statement for a pro-union public.

While workers and unions fight to make your communities safer, the rail industry continues to oppose safety reforms.

Whatever you might say about Bob Rawlings, he cared about giving southern Colorado a voice. Gannett doesn’t understand this at all.

Bad news: Gannett has announced that they're shutting down print production at The Pueblo Chieftain, effective August 13, 2023. The paper will be printed at The Denver Post print facility. 51 people are losing their jobs.
Here's a statement from our union.

This is painful end of an era, a blow to workers, and less resilience in our economy.

The story of Southern Colorado is rich with history, art, and culture. It’s unlike anywhere else on earth. And that story deserves to be told, printed, and delivered by those who live here, and know the land and the people.

This is inexcusable @Gannett.
On your website it says “Empower communities to thrive.”
Taking away 51 jobs isn’t empowering a community to thrive.

@annalynnfrey Unacceptable that 51 people are losing their jobs, and our community is losing a trusted news source. We stand with the Pueblo News Guild!

Having just visited the paper and being very excited to see the press, this is personally devastating. We cannot continue to allow our local publications to be eaten alive by big corporations. #copolitics

Can someone explain how this saves renters money on property taxes? Renters do not pay property taxes. Also why are renters excluded from people in that last sentence? 😂 @jaredpolis #coleg #copols #copolitics

Today’s breakfast in honor of the Colorado General Assembly sitting on a rail safety bill because Warren Buffet is more important than the safety of my neighborhood. #milktoast #coleg #copols #eastpalestine @SteveFenberg

The fact is, this is a blue state now and it’s going to stay that way. The “blue no matter who” days are over. It absolutely matters who, and we have options. We have so many options.
