After a long hard week at the State Capitol, it has it has been decided – by leadership – to suspend the General Assembly. I want to bring the attention to the severity of the Coronavirus (COVID-19). COVID-19 is a HIGHLY contagious viral disease that has spread throughout many of Colorado’s communities. As of March 15, 2020, it was confirmed that there are 30 new positive cases in Colorado. These additional cases, bring the total number of positive cases for COVID – 19 to 131 cases within our state. I’m certain that our leadership is doing everything possible to ensure the safety of our communities and seeks to protect the most vulnerable during this critical time. Governor Jared Polis stated, “Colorado is strong and we will get through this together. The safety and health of our most vulnerable and of our communities is our top priority. . . Coloradans and our business community must continue to rise to meet the demand of these challenging times and everyone must do their part in stopping the spread of this virus.”
Please continue to take care of yourself, your family, and our communities. I urge you to practice social distancing to prevent the spread of COVID – 19 and keep up to date with the most current information using the following reputable sites:
As always, I’m committed to serving my district and Colorado. If you need anything, please do not hesitate to send me a message and I will continue to advocate for health and safety in our communities. We are all in this together.
