Healthy Economy for Colorado District 8
Representatives in Colorado Congressional District 8
When corporations and politicians prioritize wealthy, well-connected interests over everyday hardworking people, we all pay the price.
Join the fight to let all candidates know that these priorities matter to you and your neighbors.
We, the residents of Colorado’s 8th Congressional District, from Greeley to Thornton, Westminster, and the northern Denver suburbs, we share five essential priorities:
Our Priorities
Stop ICE Collaboration – End all local police partnerships, detention‑facility expansions, and tax incentives that aid ICE.
Affordable Housing – Preserve and create safe, low‑cost homes for families who work and live in our district.
Strong Social Services – Protect funding for health care, senior support, child‑care, and food security.
Community‑Benefit Agreements – Require CBAs for any large development (e.g., Cascadia project in Greeley, AI data centers in Weld county) that guarantee local jobs, environmental safeguards, and tangible community benefits.
Why It Matters
ICE incentives subsidize detention at the expense of taxpayers and vulnerable residents.
Rapid growth in Greeley, Thornton, Westminster, Brighton, and surrounding towns is pushing rents up and squeezing existing affordable units.
Recent budget cuts are eroding essential services for seniors, children, and low‑income families.
Without enforceable CBAs, big projects profit while our neighborhoods bear the costs.
Our Ask
We call on every candidate running in the 2026 primary and general elections to publicly commit to:
Housing: Enact policies that expand affordable housing and safeguard existing low‑income units.
Social Services: Restore and grow funding for health, senior, child‑care, and food‑security programs.
CBAs: Make community‑benefit agreements mandatory for all major private‑sector developments in the district.
Sign below to let candidates know these four issues are non‑negotiable. Your signature will be shared with local officials, candidate forums, and district‑wide election outreach.
