MARSHA'S TAKE... It's Time - Second Regular Session of the Sixty Eighth General Assembly

The 65 members of the Colorado House of Representatives and 35 members of the Colorado Senate are scheduled to convene on January 11, 2012 at the State Capitol in Denver, Colorado. As the sitting legislator representing House District 19 (HD19) for the past 5 years, it has been an honor to serve the citizens of the district and work collaboratively on issues amportant to them, their families and communities.

Since being elected, we have moved Colorado forward as one of the most military friendly states in the nation and crafted legislation to jump start the stalled Southern Delivery System (SDS) discussions creating one of the largest pipeline and water storage projects in the nation that will produce hundreds of jobs in the Pikes Peak Region.

This year we are working on legislation to provide seamless employment opportunities for military spouses moving to Colorado, Higher Education educational opportunities for transitioning military service members, low-cost permanent license plates for over the road commercial tractor-trailers, restrictions on EPA mandates and repeal of big government programs.

I invite you to join me at the Colorado State Capitol to see first hand how your government works. If you, your family, class or company would like a tour of the capitol please call my office at 303-866-2946 or visit www.gomarsha.org and drop us an email.

The General Assembly is in session from January through May, and your front-row seat to democracy is just a phone call away! I invite you to visit, call or email me anytime about issues important to you and your family and I look forward to seeing you at the Colorado State Capitol during the upcoming session.

 
Sincerely,

Marsha Looper
Colorado State Representative, District 19
