Gov. Polis signed a bill today which will give children access to six free counseling sessions. My article for CTR focuses on the counseling program called “I Matter,” which has over 150 licensed therapists who offer telehealth and in-person appointments.

Today, Gov. Jared Polis (D-CO) signed the “Continue Youth Mental Health Services Program” bill, which extends indefinitely a program that provides K-12 students with six free counseling sessions. https://t.co/jH4HBpUXCf #copolitics

Today, I had the opportunity to cover a bill signing at the Denver Public Library. Gov. Polis’ new law is instrumental as it allows consumers more options to fix their electronics. @GovofCO

[Colorado Times Recorder @COTimesRecorder]

Under the new law, "Coloradans will have the information they need to repair their own equipment or use the repair provider of their own choice,” said Polis. https://t.co/qxJS1gwGBI #copolitics

My first article for the Colorado Times Recorder is out now. Calling abortion mostly a "convenience," Colorado congressional candidate Jeff Crank stated his support for a national abortion ban on Jeff & Bill, a conservative radio show.

[Colorado Times Recorder @COTimesRecorder]

“So it's convenience; 'Well, I got pregnant, and therefore I want to abort the child,'" said Colorado Springs congressional candidate Jeff Crank, explaining the thought process about abortion as he sees it. https://t.co/wGiyD1G716 #copolitics #CO05 #CO04 #CO08

“Crisis pregnancy centers,” which dissuade women from getting abortions, are in the spotlight post #RoevWade. In some states, they're getting more money. Others are increasing regulation. @michaela_herbst @JordanLouWho12 @trilce_estradao report. https://t.co/ZvKzxDVvAi
