ENDORSEMENTS: Sentinel Colorado legislative race choices for 2022

“We’ve previously pointed out to readers that Democratic state Rep. Mike Weissman has been a consistent force for thoroughness as a lawmaker, often pointing out critical nuance or potential unintended consequences of legislative proposals. He’s also earned the reputation of being the conscience of the House, making clear when well-intended laws and dubious proposals have the potential to run over people with little means of recourse.

But Weissman’s real strength for Aurora is in standing behind policies that offer security and strength to those without powerful lobbies under the Gold Dome. Weissman is a reliable ally for people and families who struggle against bureaucracies and systems that too often become insurmountable for those who don’t boast economic, educational or racial privileges.

His recent work on changes to public schools and higher education, promoting new and expanded concurrent education programs, are precisely the kind of reforms that benefit not just individuals, but the entire state.”
