Colorado Governor
Governor Polis: Misguided U.S. Supreme Court Ruling Attacks Freedom: “Sadly, the U.S. Supreme Court decided in favor of discrimination and against student loan relief today. These misguided rulings come one day after the Supreme Court overturned decades of precedent and potentially stifled future educational opportunities. We are committed to building a Colorado for all where the powerful few do not control the freedoms of all Coloradans. Unfortunately, Americans have seen the Supreme Court become increasingly obsessed with taking away freedoms. In Colorado we always seek to protect freedom and end discrimination,” said Colorado Governor Jared Polis. “These rulings run counter to Colorado values and we will continue to fight against bigotry and discrimination in all their ugly forms.”
