If we want a democracy that works for all of us, we have to call out corporate power wherever it shows up, including in Colorado’s Capitol.

This Vail “retreat” wasn’t a harmless getaway -- it was a reminder of how corporate interests sidestep our laws and our values -- in Colorado and in Washington D.C. coloradosun.com/2025/11/18/c...

Today, the Independent Ethics Commission unanimously voted to begin investigations into ethics complaints filed against state lawmakers in the "Colorado Opportunity Caucus". Our State Director, Wynn Howell, on the Democratic Party's response to that decision:

Working people need stability and dignity, not wage cuts. Tell Boulder County Commissioners: stand with workers. tinyurl.com/SaveBoulderMinimumWage And if you can, join us to testify on Thursday (11/20): tinyurl.com/SaveTheWageS...

People are tired of leaders who are disconnected from what working people face every single day. Across the Front Range, and across the country, we're showing what’s possible when working people come together and organize. www.axios.com/local/denver...

No corporate sponsors. No luxury retreats. Just real leaders doing the work with our communities. Come out tomorrow to support two of the legislators fighting corporate corruption and building a government that works for working people!

If you’re in Pueblo, show your support tonight!

This is a good time to join the WFP @workingfamilies.org I'm a broken record and if they ain't going to learn they need to learn by us not cooperating with their party anymore and building a political force that is so big that can hold different tenants but still have values.

Big thanks to the watchdogs for shining a light on the lawmakers accepting luxury junkets from groups tied to corporate lobbyists. This is corruption, plain and simple. It erodes public trust, betrays working people, and has no place in our state government. www.denverpost.com/2025/11/05/c...

As she pulls into the top four with late votes only breaking her way, we're calling it: Nicole Speer has won re-election to the Boulder City Council!

Congratulations mayor-elect Emily Francis! This is a big win for building a Fort Collins where everyone who works here can afford to live, raise a family, and thrive here.

From small towns to big cities, we’re electing champions who actually listen to working people — not corporate donors. This election, let’s keep building the movement for the many, not the money. Vote for WFP candidates: workingfamilies.org/candidates/

Just your average "grassroots movement"… funded by developers and corporate lobbyists. Wonder why... denverite.com/2025/11/03/d...

One more time for the folks in the back: if you still have your ballot, it’s time to vote! Ballots have to be turned in by 7pm tomorrow (Nov. 4th). All WFP candidates here: workingfamilies.org/candidates/

Dr. Lisa Calderón (@lisafordenver.bsky.social) is right: 2G makes elections more complicated, more expensive, and rewards corporate-backed candidates. Denver needs leaders who represent *people*, not money. Vote NO on 2G.

The sponsors of 2G claim it helps diverse candidates, but that’s just not true. As Councilmember Shontel M. Lewis says, this measure only protects the status quo and big money interests. Vote NO on 2G and keep our elections people-powered.

Reminder: ALL WORKING FAMILIES PARTY CANDIDATES ACROSS THE COUNTRY CAN BE FOUND AT THIS LINK -> wfpus.org/Candidates

Denver is already facing a budget shortfall. Former Councilmember @robinkniech.bsky.social warns that 2G would only make things worse — draining funds and making our local elections a game for the ultra wealthy. Vote NO on 2G and keep our elections people-powered.

Here’s the deal: the same folks backing 2G are the ones fueling the legislative corporate ethics scandals. Democracy is not for sale -- Vote NO on 2G. www.axios.com/local/denver...

Millions are about to see huge increases in their healthcare premium costs. 22 million people will see their healthcare premiums double and 4.2 million will lose healthcare because they can no longer afford it.

We know what keeps us safe, and it's not ICE. In Durango, neighbors came together to protect a family. ICE agents met them with violence. Keep showing up. Keep speaking out. Keep building the communities that power can’t break. www.durangoherald.com/articles/con...

Our neighborhoods should be governed by neighbors, not billionaires behind closed doors. Aurora’s conservative council slate is backed by dark money from corporate interests trying to shape local policy behind the scenes. sentinelcolorado.com/metro/conser...

Trump and MAGA Republicans don’t care that our health insurance premiums are spiraling out of control, or that families can’t afford prescription drugs. As long as their billionaire donors keep writing checks, they'll keep choosing corporate profits over people. coloradonewsline.com/briefs/healt...

we'll believe it when we see it (not holding our breath)

This isn’t the first time Denverites told the mayor no. It’s just the first time the whole country is watching him ignore them. He’s choosing corporations over our communities – and people are calling it out. denverite.com/2025/10/23/d...

Coloradans work hard and keep our communities strong. Meanwhile, corporations hold down wages, raise prices, and blame “inflation” while profits soar. It’s time our leaders spoke up for the people who make Colorado work. coloradotimesrecorder.com/2025/10/big-...

Big love to City Councilmembers Shontel Lewis, Serena Gonzales-Gutierrez, and Sarah Parady who came out tonight. Meanwhile, Mayor Johnston was nowhere to be found... When hundreds of residents fill the room to be heard, the least our Mayor can do is show up.

Hundreds of Denverites are out tonight saying NO to mass surveillance, pushing back against Mayor Johnston’s tone-deaf attempt to work around City Council’s unanimous decision to end the Flock camera contract. Our tax dollars shouldn’t fund warrantless surveillance of our communities & neighbors.

Remember that corporate-backed “retreat” for select legislators in Vail? Turns out the same folks were floating dark-money plans in Boulder. Can’t say we’re surprised, especially since it’s the first election since the city council raised the minimum wage. boulderreportinglab.org/2025/10/21/d...

TONIGHT: Denver residents are uniting to call for real community safety, not more surveillance. Join us at 6PM as we tell Mayor Johnston: End the Flock contract. Listen to the people.

A select group of lawmakers retreating to Vail with corporate lobbyists while families can’t afford rent? This is the corruption that keeps Colorado’s working people shut out of decisions that affect our lives. www.denverpost.com/2025/10/18/c...

who does the work?

Call it what it is: a pay-to-play scheme dressed up as ‘opportunity.’ We demand accountability from every lawmaker involved. #copolitics #coleg coloradosun.com/2025/10/17/c...

Union strong, democracy strong. Working people deserve a say — not rule by kings. Stand with us on Oct 18th in Denver — march + fair, 12–4 PM.
