Bipartisan lawmakers are hoping to push a bill through the Colorado House of Representatives that would expand the Colorado Department of Local Affairs’ Peace Officer Mental Health Grant program, which helps to fund initiatives like Summit County’s SMART team.

Hugh McKean were able to work with concerned stakeholders to add amendments that ultimately allowed the bill to pass through the House Public & Behavioral Health & Human Services Committee. McCluskie said getting over the first hurdle gave her confidence the bill would stand a good chance of eventually becoming law.

Donald Trump and some of his supporters are known for the Big Lie - that the presidential election was stolen. Those of us who agree Trump lost the election also tend to agree that elections officials are doing their best at the local level. Widespread voter fraud is a myth.
But a “vote from the grave,” as happened last fall in Summit County, is unacceptable. And a board of elections investigation revealing that 700 deceased Summit County voters were still registered to vote is alarming.
We agree with Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose’s move to reject the reappointment of Bryan Williams to the Summit board and place the board under administrative oversight.
