Grady Nouis Republican

< Transportation
Colorado spends less on roads than it did in 2007, putting Colorado over a decade behind on our infrastructure needs. It is imperative that your elected officials find more funding within our current budget and allocate those funds directly to our roads, bridges, highways. We also need to start looking at the costs of funding and subsidizing mass transit which 95%+ of the Colorado population does not use. I am not in favor of toll roads or more excessive taxes.

Immagration
I am a large proponent of supporting Federal authorities in protecting our community. I full-heartedly support legal immigration It pains me to see legal immigrant communities being used and abused by Democratic leadership.

Gun Ownership
I support all law-abiding citizens being able to protect their family with a firearm equal to or better than the one being used illegally against them. I am in favor of keeping firearms securely protected from our children at all times. We need to protect our children in schools like we protect our elected officials in the Capitol. With highly trained tactical safety professionals and reduced entry/exit points.

Veterans Affairs
I would be an advocate for homeless veterans with veteran’s affairs such as assisting vets to get off the streets through reintegration initiatives with our local communities.
