BPW Positions on Ballot Issues
BPW Colorado actively advocates for ballot measures that align with the principles outlined in its Advocacy Platform. Each general election in Colorado typically features statutory propositions and constitutional amendments put forth to the voters. BPW recognizes the significance of taking stances on measures that impact health, reproductive rights, economic stability, educational access, safety, equal rights, and environmental sustainability.
