Election Day is June 24! Get your ballot in and if you already have, keep talking to your neighbors and posting on social media. Go team!

Kyle Clark and Marshall Zelinger of 9NEWS weighed in on home rule and came to the same conclusion that the Vote No side has been saying all along: “those claims [about opting out of certain state laws] by Republican county commissioners don't check out.”

The commissioners held a virtual “town hall” on June 17. Commissioners Laydon and Teal spoke in a virtual setting that allowed for zero pushback or followup questions. It’s the same playbook we see from lawmakers who don’t want to face constituents and be accountable. We deserve better.

Email me, I’d love to hear from you. For real. emilysuyat@gmail.com
