  1. The University of Colorado is not in jeopardy of losing a single dime of federal funding due to Amendment 64. President Benson has allowed his personal opposition to Amendment 64 to compromise his responsibility to the university by spreading an alarmist claim that has no basis in fact.

      I say that if you are not able to reach an agreement on the fiscal cliff that every member of congress gets to forego their paychecks in order to keep the public, whom it seems I must remind you, you swore to serve, from suffering the consequences of your inability to reach an agreement! I do not care what your politics are -- the fact is that you are ALL (DEMS, REPUBS, and IND) acting incredibly childish at the expensive of the hard working american public. They say that money talks, so here is a novel idea, I think that John Kerry, Senator Jay Rockefeller, Mark Warner, Congressman Jared Polis, Senator Frank R. Lautenberg, Senator Richard Blumenthal, Diane Feinstein and the other INCREDIBLY wealthy politicians should pay the salaries of those who are being threatened with layoffs, like my friend Brendan Ross, an air traffic controller, if an agreement is not reached that satisfies all sides -- then maybe you will be more inclined to work on this problem when YOUR wallet is being hit! Welcome to the real world -- we all have to compromise on things every day -- must be nice to stand your ground at others expense!

    • Don't listen to Grover Norquist. Listen to the people that re-elected President Obama. Don't fail the USA.

      "Of all the enemies to public liberty war is, perhaps, the most to be dreaded, because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes; and armies, and debts, and taxes are the known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few." ~James Madison

  3. Equality before the law is the foundation of any just society and the fundamental issue at hand in the Perry and Windsor cases. The Court can put to rest the notion that second-class citizenry is acceptable in America by striking down DOMA and ensuring that discrimination is removed from California’s state constitution. That is the only just result of these two cases.
  4. I thank President Obama and Secretary Napolitano for this step towards addressing the sexual assault crisis in our detention facilities, particularly the inclusion of an external audit requirement in the draft rule. I look forward to closely reviewing the new rule and will closely monitor its implementation and enforcement so that people in U.S. custody are protected against such heinous acts.
  5. Colorado leads the nation in education reform efforts that foster innovative solutions aimed ensuring that every child can achieve, graduate, and go on to success in life. I am thrilled that our hard work has paid off with this $30 million ...
    investment in closing achievement gaps and improving student outcomes. This is just another step toward making Colorado’s schools second-to-none so that all children have the opportunity to go as far their talents will take them.
