Colorado’s land, air, and water are what make our state so special. But threats from Washington and rising environmental challenges mean we must step up and protect them.
- Expand CDPHE’s resources to monitor air and water quality and take appropriate enforcement actions.
- Fill the void left by federal agencies by restoring protections the EPA has abandoned.
- Fight back against federal land sell-offs—our public lands belong to all of us.
- Appoint a Chief Resilience Officer to enhance resilience to climate change across the state—from wildfires, storms and costs, to energy grid impacts.
- Support wildfire prevention with local & tribal partners from clearing beetle-kill trees to lowering insurance costs for homeowners who mitigate risk.
- Equip wildland firefighters with the protective gear and technology they need.
- Champion Colorado’s outdoor economy—support recreation, hiking, rafting, hunting, fishing, and make it easier to start outdoor businesses.
