White House
Letter to the Speaker of the House and President of the Senate on the continuation of the national emergency with respect to significant malicious cyber-enabled activities: “Significant malicious cyber-enabled activities originating from, or directed by persons located, in whole or in substantial part, outside the United States continue to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States. Therefore, I have determined that it is necessary to continue the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13694 with respect to significant malicious cyber-enabled activities.”
Colorado Governor
Governor Polis signed an Executive Order setting a congressional vacancy election for June 25, 2024, to fill Colorado’s 4th Congressional District vacancy following the resignation of Representative Ken Buck. This ensures Coloradans have sufficient representation in Congress, avoids costly duplication, and facilitates maximum voter participation. In accordance with Colorado law the Governor must call a congressional vacancy election to occur no less than 85 days and no more than 100 days after the vacancy occurs.
Denver Mayor
The Denver Auditor’s Office is proud to have once again produced one of the best local government audits in the country. Denver Auditor Timothy M. O’Brien, CPA, is honored to accept a national award for his office’s audit work in 2023: this time, a Distinguished Knighton Award from the Association of Local Government Auditors for the “Homeless Encampments” audit. “We don’t do audits for awards; we do them to help make Denver better for everyone,” Auditor O’Brien said. “But recognition from our peers tells me we’re on the right path and doing the best possible work. I am grateful to the association and our peer judges for this honor.”
