It was a great event to see so many engaged and enthusiastic young folks. Big thanks to the organizers.
Last night, I got to participate in a youth-focused nonpartisan community conversation with Mi Familia en Accion, League of Women Voters, Colorado Blackpackers, and the Colorado College Sunrise Movement.
Young people are often overlooked by political campaigns, because they aren’t seen as reliable voters. But the problem isn't that young people don't care about politics – it's that too few candidates give them something to care about. Our campaign has shown that when you run a progressive, grassroots campaign that listens to the community and offers real solutions to the challenges people face, young people are among your most enthusiastic voters, supporters, and volunteers.
