My personal musings about anything that gets on my radar screen--heavily dominated by politics.

Let me give you a tease, before I send you over to his site for the full story:

Amid a heated election contest to suspend taxpayer refunds, a leading Colorado Senate Democrat has moved forward in her plan to urge voters to adopt another tax increase to fund K-12 education.

At a Tuesday meeting, an Interim School Finance Committee composed of 10 state lawmakers agreed to proceed with crafting legislation recommending Colorado voters approve a new funding source to finance the state’s schools. Committee chair Senator Sue Windels (D - Arvada) proposed the idea, which she styled as “Referendum E.”

I guess it just makes sense: if they're going to argue that C & D aren't a tax hike, they might as well actually ask for a full-blown tax-hike to go along with it.

Good reporting, Ben.
