Menten: HB25-1327 punishes citizen participation and violates the Constitution

Colorado Politics, Approved, Commentary, State / / , , , ,

Petition rights in Colorado have been under increasing attack, and that trend continues with House Bill 25-1327 (HB 25-1327), recently introduced in the Colorado State legislature.

Among other things, HB 25-1327 would reduce the time available for citizen-led initiative efforts by moving the deadline for Title Board hearings up by two weeks. Under current law, Title Board hearings may be held through the third Wednesday in April. This bill shifts that deadline to the first Wednesday in April— a 14-day reduction in time that proponents would otherwise use to finalize their language before gathering nearly 200,000 signatures within a tight window to secure a spot on the ballot.

Tristan: Politics came between me and my daughter – love and faith brought us back

Commentary, Approved, National, Rocky Mountain Voice, State / / , , ,

A fundamental hallmark of the saga of human history, has been and continues to be, invention. Take communications for example. Less than 200 years ago, we relied on the Pony Express to send and receive communications over long distances. Then, on May 24, 1844, Samuel Morse sent the famous message “What hath God wrought” from Washington, D.C. to Baltimore, Maryland – marking the first long-distance telegraph transmission in the United States. 

Advance the hourglass of time forward 180 years to 2024, to the first human trials of Neuralink’s brain computer devices, which will enable people with medical conditions such as paralysis, spinal cord injuries, or neurological disorders, to connect with devices using only their thoughts.
