Ritter to oppose personhood amendment

Comments 0 | Recommend 0

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DENVER - Gov. Bill Ritter is opposing a first-in-the-nation proposal on Colorado ballots this fall that would define a fertilized egg as a person and potentially outlaw abortion.

Ritter plans a news conference today to oppose Amendment 48, which would change the state constitution.

The governor has also come out against other ballot measures, including a ban on affirmative action in state decisions and a ban on requiring workers to join a union.

Harrison school district closer to pay for performance for teachers
Should teacher pay be based on performance?
Yes. Teachers should be rewarded for good work, and poor performers should be weeded out.
No. Pay for performance is just a back-door way of blaming teachers for other problems in the education system.
It depends on what "performance" means. It's good if there's a fair measurement of performance.
Undecided.
