Colorado Common Cause, Common Cause, and the Campaign Legal Center yesterday filed an amicus brief in a lawsuit that threatens the state’s campaign finance laws for the 2022 election. The case, Lopez v. Griswold, is being heard by the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado.

Yesterday, more than 250 pro-democracy activists, led by Common Cause Colorado, rallied during the MLB All-Star Game festivities in support of The For The People Act. After the MLB relocated the 2021 All-Star Game from Atlanta, Georgia to Denver, Colorado, local pro-democracy organizations used the opportunity to celebrate Colorado’s voting laws and urge support for The For The People Act to set national standards for voting rights and election administration.

Colorado Common Cause today urged the state Senate to allocate $6 million for 2020 Census outreach. The funding is necessary to accurately count every Colorado community to ensure the state receives its fair share of federal funds,  which make up a third of the state budget, and is represented fairly in the U.S. House of Representatives
