Joseph Shelton is an emerging leader born and raised in Colorado Springs. Shelton first ran for office in 2019 when he was seeking a seat on the Colorado Springs School District 11. He was a student activist when his local school in Colorado Springs was closed down. For Shelton, running for State Board of Education is about creating a future-ready environment for all students. Shelton is the clear progressive choice.
Steven Durham, the Republican incumbent, is an advocate for charter schools. Over the past year and a half, Durham has worked to have the state's academic standards connect the Holocaust to socialism. A first draft of the standards was created in which Durham succeeded in omitting the word Nazi in favor of the full name of the party, which is the National Socialist German Workers Party. More recently Durham voted in favor of the “American Birthright” framework, a set of social studies standards modeled after Florida's guidelines and created by a conservative education coalition. The education system does not need Steve Durham and his twisted ideas.
We strongly recommend Joseph Shelton.Joseph Shelton
