My heart is full as I hang up Superman’s cape after eight incredible Halloweens. ❤️💙

The REAL superheroes were always the first responders, healthcare workers, courageous children, and families facing some of life’s toughest battles.

Over the years, thousands of handwritten get-well cards from Douglas County kids brought hope, love, and smiles to children in our local hospitals. Small hands. Big hearts. Powerful kindness.

To every volunteer and fellow superhero who joined me over these two terms, thank you for making this tradition unforgettable.

The cape comes off, but the love and the memories remain.

Thank you, Douglas County, for eight SUPER years! 🦸🏻‍♂️🎃❤️

When a wildfire threatens your home, your family, or your neighborhood, you don't care about political ads and bureaucracy. You care about how fast help arrives. Your three-member board of county commissioners is making sure it arrives faster with the groundbreaking of our new year round hangar which will house Colorado’s only county operated firefighting helicopter.

Wildfire doesn't have a season anymore. Neither does our readiness, which is now Jan 1 - Dec 31. We're putting the aircraft, the people, and the power in place to strike hard, heavy, and fast.

As Chairman and founder of the Wildfire Action Collaborative, I wish to extend my thanks to the Office of Emergency Management, the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, all of the fire districts, and my elected colleagues for their ardent support of this Douglas County initiative to stay ahead of wildfires.

Thank you, Douglas County! 🇺🇸

I created “DougNad” with a simple vision: to bring friends and families together to serve their neighbors and make a real difference in our communities while modeling public service for the next generation.

Inspired by the Scandinavian tradition of dugnad, citizens start the morning gathered around a pancake breakfast before heading out across the county to serve seniors, rake leaves, care for our parks, and lend a helping hand wherever it’s needed.

And perhaps the most meaningful part? Kids are always welcome to serve right alongside their parents, learning firsthand what it means to give back. This spring, they’ll again have the opportunity to plant and name their own trees 🌳

Of course amid a sea of noisy political ads, it’s refreshing to spend time with people who aren’t just talking about making a difference, they’re actually out there doing it : )

Way to go, DougCo! Our county is great because of YOU!

Today, we took a major step forward in ENDING child trafficking in Colorado.

Today Governor Polis signed our bill, SB26-15, into law which means an adult can no longer get simply probation for buying a child, but jail time. This common sense, bipartisan measure sends a loud message to buyers: if you come here to buy children, you will be caught. And when you're caught, you're going to jail.

This success could not have happened without the tireless work of survivors, advocates, law enforcement, elected officials, and a truly dedicated team of caring leaders who would not rest until we achieved our goal.

My deepest thanks to Mariah Cook, Abby Hegarty, Sheriff Darren Weekly, Senate and House Leadership, and especially Jenelle Goodrich of From Silenced To Saved who is the true thought leader and hero of this legislation. Jenelle, I’m honored to champion your incredible efforts and excited to also be taking on DC with you and this amazing public safety coalition.

Our work isn't finished, but today is a big victory for victims and Colorado's children.

Free “Uber” in Douglas County is here. Link On Demand has now delivered 83,000 rides with a 4.9★ out of 5 rating, helping everyone from seniors getting to doctor’s appointments to residents with developmental disabilities.

Thanks to my fellow commissioners, we took Lone Tree’s successful pilot and scaled it countywide. If you live in Parker, Highlands Ranch, Castle Rock, or Lone Tree, you can now access free rides anywhere in Douglas County with more locations coming soon.

Even better, this program is designed to pay for itself, generating new sales tax revenue as riders shop and dine across our local economy, from King Soopers to Park Meadows to the Outlets.

Grateful to our municipal partners, our residents, and Via for making this happen.

Douglas County - enjoy the ride.
