Remembering Our Heroes on Memorial Day

As we celebrate Memorial Day this year, we know you will join us with a prayer of thanks for our military men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice.  Throughout our country’s history we have called on our young men and women to step forward and serve during times of great peril to our nation.

Each time they have stepped forward and served with honor and valor.  From Valley Forge to Afghanistan they have not hesitated to volunteer to defend our nation.  We often think of the quote “all gave some, some gave all” as the most appropriate comment we can make about our heroes through the ages.

This Memorial Day, please remember not only our fallen heroes, but all who have served and their families who make such sacrifices so that they may serve.

Legislative races come into focus this month

 

With just two weeks before ballots go into the mail for the June primary election, the state’s top primary races and the battle for control of the General Assembly is coming into sharp focus.

On the heels of a special session marked by partisan bickering — heralded by the demise of a divisive civil unions bill — that could cast a shadow over an otherwise remarkably cooperative legislative session, Democrats and Republicans alike can make a concrete case to voters that control of the legislative chambers makes a big difference.

Already, Democrats are raising money and hope to motivate supporters by branding House GOP leaders, personified by Speaker Frank McNulty of Highlands Ranch, as what stood between a majority of lawmakers and a civil unions law. Republicans, for their part, are making the same argument in hopes of retaining or expanding their one-vote majority in the House and are making an aggressive bid for control of the Senate, which Democrats dominate by a wider, five-seat margin.

It remains to be seen whether the fate of the civil unions bill itself will sway many races — word is, candidates aren’t hearing much about it on doorsteps this week — but there’s no question that an avalanche of attention to the final days of the session put a spotlight on the legislature in an election year otherwise dominated by Colorado’s position as a crucial swing state in the presidential race.

Of the 85 legislative contests on the ballot — all 65 House seats and 20 of the 35 Senate seats — these dozen races are generating the most heat, drawing the most attention, and could be the closest to call.
