COLORistas-

As you may have seen in the news, 11 state legislators from Colorado, members of the GOP Study Committee of Colorado (RSCC) are visiting Arizona with their counterparts to discuss SB 1070, other laws that apply to illegal immigration and more. These 11 members will be introducing legislation similar to SB-1070 in Colorado next year. This is a distraction to Colorado's real concerns. We need CIR at the Federal level. This pushes Colorado in the wrong direction. Colorado's elected officials should be focusing on the real concerns of Colorado, like jobs and the economy, rather than playing political games 3 months before the election.
