I just received the following email from Rep. Brian DelGrosso:
Thank you for your interest in these significant tax increase proposals. As a small business owner myself, I take a strong stance against these harmful measures that will cost jobs here in Colorado, and I will be fighting to defeat them. HB 10-1189—HB 10-1199 are in direct opposition to Article 10 Section 20 of TABOR which states, “[d]istricts must have voter approval for any…tax policy change directly causing a net tax revenue gain to any district.” During these difficult economic times, the legislature should not be adding to the burden of Colorado families and businesses.
I would highly encourage you to follow the status of these bills online and join us at the capitol when the remaining bills go through committee. Your participation in the legislative process is greatly appreciated.
Only by showing the Democrat members of this committee how harmful these measures truly are will we be able to defeat these new tax measures.
If you have questions about how you can get involved, please let me know. Otherwise, please rest assured that I will do everything I can to defeat these bills.
Sincerely,
Representative Brian DelGrosso,
House District 51

Way to go Brian!
