“In the relatively short time I've served in the
Colorado legislature, I'm pleased to report that I've been able to affect issues ranging from the use of drug treatment centers, to funding for school based health clinics, to insuring that employers withhold state income tax from contract workers so that illegal workers can't 'slip through.'”
