Governor Polis Issue A Shelter-In-Place

Governor Jared Polis

Current models show that if Colorado does not issue a stay at home order by March 25th we will be past the point of no return overwhelming Colorado hospitals and placing thousands of Coloradans in danger.

Governor Polis, now is the time to act. Issue a shelter-in-place order for all of Colorado! Time is of the essence right now. Mandate that all non-essential workplaces close and all non-essential workers be sent home to protect the safety and health of our families. We must act now before the COVID-19 virus overwhelms our healthcare system, endangering the lives of all of us. We need Immediate financial assistance for workers impacted by the closure of their workplaces, a moratorium on utilities mortgages, and rent, and other policies that make sure working families are not harmed while we take these necessary precautions for our state.
