I was pleased to speak with @SteveStaeger yesterday about the implications of the Grants Pass case in Boulder. “Camping” bans are a waste of valuable resources - we could, and should, spend money on housing & services rather than on policing people from one block to the next 1/

Supreme Court weighs bans on sleeping outdoors; How ruling could impact Colorado cities youtu.be/KIeHutmjiQs?ut…
Justice Alito asks about a hypothetical: What if a homeless person knows there is a shelter bed available but doesn't want to go because they don't take pets? This isn't an unlikely scenario at all. There are lots of reasons why people refuse shelters, most often safety.
Justice Elena Kagan: "For a homeless person who has no place to go, sleeping in public is kind of like breathing in public."
My bill to crack down on predatory debt collection passed today. 1380 will prevent debt collectors from pooling unrelated debts in the same action, hiding the org source of your debt, setting predatory fees or weaponizing the courts against the poor. TY @pweiser @Cutter4Colorado
Today, @GovofCO Polis signed into law my bill with @SenadoraJulie Gonzales, plus House Reps. @MannyRutinel and @javier_mabrey, which prohibits local governments from enacting or enforcing residential occupancy limits. #COLeg #COPolitics
Wow. I'm still digesting the details of the bill, but it looks like Colorado is on track to eliminate minimum parking requirements in most urban areas of the state. leg.colorado.gov/sites/default/…

This is a critical bill that would unlock thousands of affordable housing units. Please let your senators know!

The House has also now fully passed HB24-1304, which would eliminate minimum parking mandates mostly in Front Range cities. The bill now heads to the Senate, a couple days after the House sent the Senate two other land-use reform bills (ADUs and transit-oriented upzoning).
Days after @yellowscenemag's lawsuit against Boulder PD over police body-cam video fees, a new bill from Reps. @leslieherod and @baconforco would prohibit law enforcement agencies from charging for footage released under the Law Enforcement Integrity Act. #coleg #copolitics

@Conrad_Swanson Been there and it sucks, I'm sorry. Went to ask my landlord about something small and she informed us she was not renewing our lease so her son could move in. A week after we scrambled to leave, she reposted the apt on Zillow for $700 more per month.
love those moments when i ask our landlord to fix our washer and instead he informs me that we have to find a new place to live because he’s selling the place
Boulder Progressives is excited to announce an expansion of our board of directors with the addition of seven new members! We look forward to bringing our board’s decades of experience to effecting change across our city and state. Learn more at boulderprogressives.org/board
could not be more happy to see the end of these discriminatory housing laws in Colorado. huge day!
Want to make change? Just a few years ago, @CastellanoChels, @ericmbudd. & friends were in parks and stores collecting signatures. Now there’s a state law. Winning with towns can make a large impact. & #Boulder rn has seriously good people doing it. 🤩 9news.com/article/news/l…
So great to see. And these are folks who have been working on this issue for many years - congratulations!

Big day today - @GovofCO signed leg.colorado.gov/bills/hb24-1007 to eliminate discriminatory occupancy limits statewide! This is the first of this year's land use and housing bills to cross the finish line. It is near and dear to me professionally and personally (a thread)

Gen-Z is the generation of mass shootings, active shooter drills, and being afraid to die at school because adults wouldn’t be bold on guns. This week marks the 25th anniversary of the massacre at Columbine. Many have let go of what happened that day— my generation never got to.
#Boulder, big news from the Capitol today...Gov. Polis just passed a statewide bill blocking cities from creating or enforcing occupancy laws based on family relationships. Boulder has had this type of occupancy law for decades. dailycamera.com/2024/04/15/gov…
Ending discriminatory housing policy is a vibe 😎

Every dollar we spend now on enforcement is money we could spend on shelter, housing, treatment, and healthcare. We can absolutely make cities & communities where no one is left behind - we just have to choose it. /4
With a heavily Trump-stacked court it’s hard to imagine that the right side will prevail. However, Boulder and other cities nationwide don’t have to join Trump’s justices in devaluing human life. Regardless of the ruling here cities can still choose to do the right thing. 3/
When a city like Boulder makes it illegal to be homeless outdoors, while also not ensuring there are enough shelter beds, safe outdoors spaces, or places for people to go - we are not criminalizing camping, we are criminalizing poverty. We are criminalizing people. 2/
I was pleased to speak with @SteveStaeger yesterday about the implications of the Grants Pass case in Boulder. “Camping” bans are a waste of valuable resources - we could, and should, spend money on housing & services rather than on policing people from one block to the next 1/

First notable risk for severe storms of the season for NE Colorado on Thursday. Deep negatively-tilted trough, sharp temp clash, potentially lots of energy = keep an eye to the forecast for Thursday. A chilly washout looks increasingly likely for Saturday. #COwx
Supreme Court weighs bans on sleeping outdoors; How ruling could impact Colorado cities youtu.be/KIeHutmjiQs?ut…
New: Colorado's constitution still has language banning same-sex marriage. (Obviously not enforced anymore.) Sen. @joannginal (D) proposes to ask voters to strike that language. Would be on ballot this November.
At arguments in Grants Pass, Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson are pummeling the Gibson Dunn attorney defending laws that punish homeless people who sleep outside. Sotomayor asks: If homeless people aren't allowed to sleep anywhere, are they supposed to just "kill themselves"?

Homeless advocates often talk about the "four Ps" that shelters need to offer (but often don't): privacy, possessions, partners and pets. When shelters don't allow these things people will often choose to sleep on the street instead.
Justice Alito asks about a hypothetical: What if a homeless person knows there is a shelter bed available but doesn't want to go because they don't take pets? This isn't an unlikely scenario at all. There are lots of reasons why people refuse shelters, most often safety.
(Listen for Kelsi's answer to this one--she'll no doubt find a way to address it if EK doesn't ask her.)
Justice Elena Kagan: "For a homeless person who has no place to go, sleeping in public is kind of like breathing in public."
the Columbine massacre occurred 25 years ago today. in Colorado we don’t just think and pray; we act. it was an honor yesterday to reflect and fellowship with others working for a world free of the omnipresent threat of gun violence. it was fitting today, to serve. on we press.
