Today many Colorado citizens of all political persuasions (at least those registered with a political party) have the opportunity to make their voices heard and influence their respective party’s choice of candidates in the elections, at their county assembly. The county assemblies are the first binding votes cast leading to selection of political candidates for the general elections, and we encourage everyone to take advantage of the opportunity, whatever your party affiliation.

The county assemblies ALSO present the opportunity for citizens to speak out on matters of policy, as well as politics - by voting on resolutions to gain support within the political parties and their membership.

Clear The Bench Colorado asks citizens attending the assemblies who care about our Constitution and upholding the rule of law - be they Republican, Libertarian, Green Party, or Democrat (although it may take a bit more courage from members of the latter parties) to support the following resolution (which may vary slightly in wording) at your county assembly:

     Whereas, the rule of law must be upheld by judges who respect the Constitution and act to interpret laws as written, rather than make them by legislating from the bench and overriding the will of the people -  

      Be it Resolved that  We The People strongly advocate a “NO” vote on the retention of Colorado Supreme Court Justices Michael Bender, Alex Martinez, Nancy Rice, and Chief Justice Mary Mullarkey in the November 2010 elections, in order to restore accountability to the judiciary of Colorado.

Join Clear The Bench Colorado in returning “power to the people” - get active, get involved, raise your voice and help to restore accountability to the Colorado judiciary by exercising YOUR RIGHT to vote “NO” on the four unjust justices of the Colorado Supreme Court (Justices Michael Bender, Alex Martinez, Nancy Rice, and Chief Justice Mary Mullarkey) who need YOUR approval to continue taking away your rights: your right to vote on tax increases, your right to defend your home or business from seizure by government abuse of eminent domain power, and your right to enjoy the benefits of the rule of law, not rule by activist, agenda-driven “justices.”  Help to Support Clear The Bench Colorado with your voice (Sound Off!), your contributions, and your “NO” vote to remove these unjust justices on election day this November!
