Increasing Affordability

Our high cost of living makes it challenging for middle class locals to thrive, especially with the increase in housing prices and the large number of second-home owners. This is a true crisis in Colorado. We need legislation that supports affordable housing and economic policy that benefits everyone.


My 2024 Sponsored Legislation:

HB24-1237: Development of Early Child Care Facilities

This bipartisan bill creates multiple programs to ease the burden on our community’s parents and childcare providers. It works to ease the navigation and creation of childcare facilities.


HB24-1431: Housing for Survivors of Abuse

This bipartisan bill creates a program to provide short-term financial assistance for survivors of domestic or sexual violence. Protecting our most vulnerable families from facing homelessness, this bill appropriates funds to be contracted to community organizations providing domestic and sexual violence intervention services to address clients’ most immediate housing needs.


HB24-1314: Preservation of Historic Structures

As important pieces of our past, we value historic spaces and the heritage they preserve. This bill expands the existing tax credit for the preservation of historic structures while increasing opportunities for historic structures to be used for affordable housing.


SB24-233: The Property Tax Bill

Bipartisan legislation to advance a long-term, permanent solution to reducing property taxes for homeowners and small businesses.


My 2023 Sponsored Legislation:

SB23-001: Supporting Affordable Housing

Allows and incentivizes public-private partnerships to develop affordable housing on unused state land.


HB23-1112: Child Tax Credits

Increases earned income and child tax credits, returning over $170 million more to hardworking families and helps ensure our tax code works for all Coloradans.


HB23-1091: Child Care Tax Credit

Extends child care contribution tax credit to incentivize charitable donations to child care providers and training programs.



As your representative, I will continue to:

  • Work to ensure all community members can afford to live in our beautiful towns.

  • Fight for affordable housing opportunities.

  • Advocate for access to quality jobs.

  • Promote access to affordable early childhood education.

  • Represent constituents and stakeholders invested in affordability.
