Statewide Ballot Measures

Proposition LL

ਵੋਟ ਦਿਓ YES

Vote YES on Proposition LL

ਵੈਬਸਾਈਟ

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.

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.

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.

Larimer County Ballot Issue 1B proposes a .25% sales and use tax increase to better address the shortage of affordable and quality childcare in the region.
