Political organizers have submitted four potential ballot measures that would reshape how the city of Denver handles immigration and crime.
The proposed initiatives are only in their beginning stages, so some ideas behind them aren’t fully formed. The city hosted public review sessions last week for the measures, offering a first look at what could be on the ballot this November.
The measures were submitted by Suzanne Taheri, a lawyer who has frequently worked on conservative ballot measures. The conservative Advance Colorado organization also is involved.
But the measure’s backers are bipartisan, including one local Democratic voter, according to Michael Fields of Advance Colorado.
