Statewide Ballot Measures

Proposition LL

YES 투표

Vote YES on Proposition LL

웹사이트

Proposition LL asks if the state should be allowed to keep and spend the revenue collected from Proposition FF. Prop FF established the Healthy School Meals for All Program and has accrued $12.4 million in revenue since its original voter approval in 2022. The Healthy School Meals for All Program is funded through state income taxes and supports free school meals for all students, regardless of family income. Due to the Tax Payers Bill of Rights, the state of Colorado must ask for approval in order to keep and spend tax revenue that has already been collected. If voters do not approve LL, households that paid the state income tax will have the tax revenue reimbursed to them. With the additional funds from LL, the Healthy School Meals for All Program would be able to further support the purchasing and use of Colorado grown products, increase wages for cafeteria employees, and offer training and technical assistance to schools.
Food is necessary for growing and learning brains. For any number of reasons, many children do not have access to quality nutrition. Free and nutritious meals can help support students from all economic and social backgrounds in becoming empowered learners and leaders.

Ultimately, programs like this support countless children and families and do a great deal to curb hunger in Colorado. All children need and deserve access to quality nutrition. Proposition MM helps provide government support for pathways to success among school age children of all backgrounds and identities.

Ballot Issue 1B requests the installation of a 0.15% sales and use tax to be put towards the mental health and substance abuse challenges present in Boulder County. The revenue would benefit all ages and economic backgrounds with increased access to services, programs, and intervention/recovery for mental health crisis, suicide risk, and substance use. This tax would allow for better implementation of Boulder County Behavioral Health’s Strategic Plan to address unmet behavioral and mental health needs. Locally funded and community centered approaches have been proven to be most successful in improving behavioral health at large as well as the efficiency of the workforce and economy. The tax would not apply to machinery, food, renewable energy development, or sales that benefit schools or parent/teacher associations.
