BOHICA... Oil and Gas Ban, despite the voters saying no in Nov...

[Skip]

I have the privilege to work for one of those private equity backed operators. We operate in West Texas but are headquartered in Denver. Our CEO was pretty candid about what we as a company would do had 112 passed. He was prepared to move the company out of Colorado even though we don't operate here. If the state doesn't support the industry, then they shouldn't get our taxes. I'd be fine with moving north. A little less fine moving to West Texas....

I hear the same thing!

Any decrease in revenue will justify a tax increase on the rest of the state to cover it. They are virtue signaling at our expense.

JARED POLIS HOPED TO STYMIE COLORADO OIL AND GAS WHILE PROFITING OFF OF HIS CANADIAN ENERGY INVESTMENTS

https://www.compasscolorado.org/jare...y-investments/

According to his own financial disclosure statements, Polis is an investor in two Denver-based Bow River Capital funds that invest heavily in the Canadian oil and gas industry – a market with a much looser regulatory framework than that of Colorado or the United States. Polis personally has more than $250,000 invested in these funds. If Polis scuttles oil and natural gas development in Colorado, the value of his personal investment holdings in Canada could increase as domestic supply contracts as a result.

It's passed everything but having PoleSmoker sign it...

Screw the voting people's voice, right?

Silence peasant!

We're further along the path of ruining our great state.

"Polis “is thrilled to see” the bill pass,"

IOW, he's thrilled to send Colorado down the shitter.

The Colorado Secretary of State?s Office has approved a recall petition for Greeley dem state Rep. Rochelle Galindo, allowing her critics to begin collecting signatures as they try to remove her from office.

Hopefully the first of many.

I sincerely hope they recall her, but I'm worried it won't happen.

During the Weld County "2A Sanctuary" stuff, it came out that Greeley is behaving as a "Illegal Immigration Sanctuary City" but refuses to label themselves as such, since there would be significant negative repercussions....

Greality is a completely different city than all of weld cty. You could tell when they not only elected Dave Young, but decided to keep him in office for a 2nd term.

Oh, I know.

Just saying that that was when it actually came out as public that they are acting as a Sanctuary City, but refuse to label themselves as such in fear of loosing federal money.
