TABOR supporter,

Did you know Americans For Prosperity has been promoting and protecting TABOR, the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights?

Attached is a brochure with their latest activities.

You can learn more by checking their website, https://americansforprosperity.org/state/colorado/

The purpose of this letter is to share a list of Americans for Prosperity’s vigorous activities educating the public about TABOR over the last several months.

Since not everyone may have witnessed those efforts (much is visible on facebook and twitter), I’m including some social blurbs and photos. These blurbs just span back to the July-August 2022 period and I certainly haven’t included all their activities, though there’s more available.

 

AFP mailers to voters that refunds were thanks to TABOR.

AFP at the state capitol – this Thursday, March 2nd

Posted on by

With looming attacks on our Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights, Americans for Prosperity (AFP) has organized a Lobby Day at the Colorado State Capitol for Thursday, March 2nd from 8:30 am – 3:00 pm. Your participation is welcome, even if you have just a couple hours available.

The focus will be communicating directly with state legislators to:

  1. Protect TABOR refunds
  2. Stop the gas tax from going into effect
  3. Protect Coloradans from soaring energy bills.

The group will be meeting 8:30 am next to the south entry to the capitol at 14th Avenue.

Contact Michael Alarcon with AFP at 303-483-3217 if you have questions or need to meetup with the group through the day.

AFP will provide lunch.

Did You Know This Is In The 2022 Colorado Democrats Platform?

No wonder they have “Tax and Spend,” “Spend and Tax” agenda.

They don’t like being constrained.

No wonder we don’t like their policies.

They try to undermine TABOR at every instance.

They now call them “fees” instead of “taxes,” or categorize them as “enterprises” to skirt TABOR.

They believe that “your” money is “their money.”

If you don’t believe us, here’s a screenshot of page 9 of their 2022 platform:
