Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) Coloradans are vital members of our communities. We have children in public school. We attend colleges across the state. We check out books and use resources from our libraries. We work hard at our jobs. We drive on city avenues, suburban streets, and mountain roads to get where we want to go. We let our voices be heard through our vote.We are Colorado, each and every one of us, and we are one of many reasons why our state is great. And together, we must stand up and protect the future of our great state by voting no on these harmful ballots.Why should you care about 60, 61, and 101?Amendments 60 and 61 and Proposition 101 are harmful individually, but together, they are complex, broad, and full of unintended consequences, including:
- 72,000 jobs lost statewide.
- Maintenance on roads halted.
- Fewer teachers, larger class sizes.
- No new schools, museums, or universities built.
- Libraries closed.
- Services–including snowplowing, restaurant inspections, and 9-1-1 emergency services, threatened.
