It's time to invest in Colorado

Our country used to be a place of promise for hard working Americans. Go to school, work hard, play by the rules - if you did this, life would be pretty good.

That promise is broken today. Globalization, technology, and short-sighted economic policies that tilt more and more to the most fortunate have built a different kind of American economy than the one we grew up with.

Worse still, too many politicians in Colorado and around the country are more interested in empty promises about turning back the clock or burying their heads in the sand than in ensuring we all can find good education, security, and prosperity.

But right now Mike Johnston is working hard towards a new Colorado Promise. This plan would ensure all Coloradans are elligible for up to two years of debt-free tuition for community college or training in exchange for providing meaningful service to the state.

This simple plan will allow everyone who puts in the work to get the skills they need for the high-demand and well-paying jobs that are emerging.

But change won't happen unless we stand together and demand it.

Take action today: Add your name to stand with Mike Johnston and call for a new promise in Colorado, one that gives us all affordable access to education and a chance at stability and prosperity now and in the future!
