Issue Position: Fiscal Responsibility

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2016

Colorado's state constitution requires a balanced budget every year. Unlike Washington, D.C. and like most people and families, Colorado may only spend what it takes in a given year. I support using Colorado's limited budget dollars to benefit our community's and our state's residents as broadly as possible -- through things like investments in K-12 and higher education and basic healthcare services. I will oppose attempts by influential special interests to win large public subsidies or favorable tax treatment. Responsible individuals pay their fair share of taxes without special exemptions and it's only fair that Colorado's businesses do so as well.
