In addition to an incredibly strong showing by pro-public school education candidates on the federal and state level, we are equally excited by the array of wins at virtually every level of Colorado's local government.

“A fully-funded education system would mean attracting and retaining more educators, smaller class sizes, safer schools equipped with ample mental health professionals – all of which lead to better student outcomes for all students. This is the Colorado that our students deserve, that our education professionals deserve, and the future we all must demand, ” said Amie Baca-Oehlert, high school counselor and president of the Colorado Education Association.
Colorado’s largest union, the Colorado Education Association (CEA), announced on behalf of its 39,000 members that it will support 2022 election candidates and ballot measures that prioritize the investment, respect, and safety of our public schools.
