You may be interested in what is happening with the State Supreme Court in NY re: petitions for 9/11 visibility. They just received a denial from the State Supreme Court for a petition based request, the denial which is clearly in violation of the will of the people. http://www.nyccan.org/ It would seem your two organizations could share strategy. They have done some significant fund raising. Also, the local C4L group has an email base of over 8000 and the state coordinator said our state rep's ears really perk up when they hear that ... Reach her through Liberty Loving Coloradans Meetup group. Our reps at least need to be on board enough to be conversant with your cause, IMHO. Thanks for your continuing efforts and education of us all. Thanks for your eye-opening presentation at Ladies for Liberty yesterday.

We just made a donation and hope to see Colorado do some "spring cleaning" late next fall! These justices clearly do not understand what they were elected to do -- it's time to shut down the power grab as Mike notes in this article. Rather than a "perfunctory formality," we plan to have a decisive disinfecting.

I'm of the persuasion that the matter of education is the responsibility of the parents and the church (I'm a homeschooling mother of three). However, Colorado, like the US, is guided by a certain constitution, and those who blatantly refuse to abide by it need to be voted out.

In the issue of check and balances, we have the executive branch that's the check here.
