Gov. Jared Polis orders plan to keep Colorado’s national parks open in a federal shutdown

A place for ex-pats from the Denver Post comment section (closing down in July), as well as people that want to discuss Denver Post articles in general.
Even if I don’t agree with every little thing, the number of times I’ve said, “Thank goodness I live in Colorado,” has become innumerable.
Agreed. Polis is essentially Libertarian, but at least he's not a crazy ideologue. Longer term, I'd be happier to have someone more progressive, but he'll do for now.
Yep - baby steps - as long as they’re going in the right direction.
Yep, I haven't found too much that I disagree with him on. I'm very progressive, and I find most of his decisions to be great.
My sister lives in Arkansas, so I try to keep up with news affecting her and her family over there and I say that to myself all the time. I wish so bad she would move out here with me.
Yikes - yeah that’s a big divide to cross. I hope you prevail!
Yeah, it's not gonna happen. She bought a place in the mountains there and just got married and a new baby. They also have a whole farm going and everything. I hate that they live in Ark, but I'm glad they stay mostly isolated in the mountains.
Oof. Hopefully their farm tolerates climate change. Best of luck to you all.
