Our Government

Date:

White House

President Biden named FEMA’s Robert Fenton as the White House National Monkeypox Response Coordinator and Dr. Demetre Daskalakis as the White House National Monkeypox Response Deputy Coordinator. Fenton and Daskalakis will lead the Administration’s strategy and operations to combat the current monkeypox outbreak, including equitably increasing the availability of tests, vaccinations and treatments.

Colorado Governor

Governor Jared Polis signed a new bipartisan law to provide free transit fares across the state and thanks to this new law, RTD and transit agencies across Colorado will provide at least a month of free transit fares for all Coloradans this summer and next — saving Coloradans money and increasing access to transit. Through the end of August, RTD and other local transit agencies in Colorado, via the Colorado Association of Transit Agencies (CASTA), are offering free public transit services to all riders. The Zero Fare for Better Air initiative is being administered by the Colorado Energy Office (CEO) through the two-year Ozone Season Transit Grant Program, which is part of the state’s broader effort to improve air quality, reduce greenhouse gas pollution emissions, and save Coloradans money on transportation.

Denver Mayor

Denver has submitted the city’s required American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) annual report to the U.S. Treasury. The report demonstrates that over the last two years, Denver has met the work of building a better tomorrow head-on as officials faced challenges and created opportunities in this pandemic recovery for Denver residents and businesses across the city. Denver’s ARPA funds represent a critical component of the city’s comprehensive, multi-year financial strategy to leverage both federal and local funds for recovery. These funds include deployment of existing bond funds for infrastructure and a voter-passed general obligation bond program for citywide infrastructure improvements as an economic stimulant for local businesses.
