Why are you running? Coloradans deserve a Treasurer who puts the taxpayers ahead of special interests and knows what it takes to make ends meet in business and government.
What are the top three challenges facing Colorado or the institution you seek to represent?
1. The Treasurer’s first priority is to manage taxpayer funds wisely and safely, so I will continue to work with the Legislature to adopt long-term financial strategies to get the most from the tax dollars entrusted to state government.
2. Not every part of our state has enjoyed the prosperity of the Front Range, which is why I will work with local leaders to help promote economic development and diversity in our rural communities.
3. Finally, I am committed to helping young adults achieve financial stability and build a secure future for themselves and their families.
