Working families are feeling the squeeze on their pocketbooks across Colorado. Tracey’s fighting for them.
Whether it’s gaps in access to healthcare, gender pay, high-quality education, or affordable housing, issues caused by inequities are hurting Colorado families. These issues aren’t solved on their own and I’ve spent my last term addressing inequities throughout our state. I want to be a voice for people who don’t have a voice. That’s why I’ve been working to reduce costs so more families don’t have to choose between their bills and their healthcare.
