John Hickenlooper: Bolster cybersecurity defense of our voting systems

As Governor, I established the National Cybersecurity Center, so I know what it takes to enact strong online protections. I support bolstering the defense of our voting systems by investing in cybersecurity efforts to secure voter registration databases, voting machines, reporting websites, and other software vulnerable to meddling.

Ellen Burnes: Navigate billions in infrastructure updates

In the coming century, America has to navigate some big changes with big price tags, that we won't be able to just spend our way out of. Trillions of dollars in student debt, billions in extreme weather damage, billions in infrastructure updates, all while providing jobs, food, and housing to hundreds of millions of Americans.

As a natural resources economist, Ellen works with people from all 64 counties to bolster Colorado's long-term economic success through manufacturing, public transit, water management, renewable energy, farm-to-table supply chains, and good old fashioned tourism. Building a Smarter Future for Colorado means ensuring that families who are dependent on Colorado's natural resources will always have a seat at the table.
