KEY ISSUES 1. What should state lawmakers be doing to strengthen Colorado's economy?

Colorado must resist with all resolve any efforts to force our energy producers into Cap and Trade programs and Carbon Tax schemes. Adding exorbitant costs to doing business in this state through these onerous, punitive taxing schemes will have a devastating effect on our economy at both the business and consumer levels.

2. What should the state Legislature do about illegal immigration, or has it taken all necessary steps?

A great first step would be to pass a bill I have offered, twice killed by the Democrats, to create the crime of trespassing for illegal aliens. This simple statute would offer the same deterrent effect that we seek in most criminal statutes, providing punishment for illegal behavior and activity.

3. What role should the state government play in the advancement of renewable energy?

The state should play an active role in helping any energy provider, renewable or otherwise, to acquire necessary permitting for transmission and generation from all energy sources. With the Western region of the U.S. facing a deficit of electricity generation, seeking only green energy or none will surely leave us with the latter.
