Lawmakers and other politicos who watched Thursday’s State of the State address from Gov. Jared Polis mostly reacted along party lines to his policy prescriptions on housing, transportation, public safety, education and taxation.
But not always.
Democrats, for example, lauded some of his strategies on housing — but not so much the governor’s support for tax cuts. Republicans, meanwhile, liked what they heard on cutting taxes but were not thrilled with his other ideas.
Denver Mayor Mike Johnston, a former state senator who attended the speech, his first since winning election last spring, he said he is “really excited about his focus on affordable housing statewide.”
