“The $250 million cut is an additional blow to Colorado’s fiscal stability and the well-being of our residents and may be the tip of the iceberg. The Trump administration has made it clear that states and cities standing in the way of immigration enforcement, like Colorado and Denver with their sanctuary policies, will face consequences. Denver’s refusal to cooperate with federal authorities, alongside Colorado’s Safe and Inclusive Communities Act, is putting our state in the crosshairs for further funding reductions.”

"The Colorado District 1 GOP sees this as a clear signal: the Democratic Party’s reliance on outdated voices and failed policies no longer resonates with Colorado’s future. The Sanders-AOC appearance was a relic of a bygone era, not a vision for the vibrant, growing population shaping Denver and beyond."

This activity, uncovered in a CBS News Colorado investigation published March 20, 2025, raises serious questions about transparency and accountability in Denver’s city operations.
