  • Gov. Hickenlooper Apologize for Insulting Am. 64 Voters
    After learning that Colorado voters passed Amendment 64 by a 55% to 45% margin, Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper stated to the 1.291 Million Coloradians for voted for Am. 64, "don’t break out the Cheetos or gold fish too quickly." This stereotypical comment is an insult to the majority of Colorado voters who voted for Am. 64 and demonstrates the Gov.'s unwillingness to protect, uphold and defend this portion of the State Constitution as he is sworn to do.

    Gay and lesbian individuals are being discriminated against every day by our federal government under the guise of protecting marriage for the purpose of bearing and raising children.
