If the national rule is overturned, that would make Colorado the only state with this requirement, thereby making it potentially more restrictive for oil and gas companies to do business in this state. Why would they not go instead 60 miles south to the Chaco area in New Mexico, for example, with whom we all share air but not tax revenues?

Tipton’s office doesn’t acknowledge that House Joint Resolution 36 will kill both Colorado jobs and people, which I think is shameful. Don’t you?

We still haven’t heard what Sen. Gardner thinks. I think he needs to hear from us all about this. Please call him.
