So dark.

Yeah.

Our disclosures are available on Tracer, which is the campaign reporting tool.

And I can promise you that.

We do not have any dark money that is coming in.

I would be grateful to have any money coming in to help us.

But we are a We the People movement.

With

How is this controversial? How is this controversial? How could this be? How do you respond to critics of it? First of all, let's start there.

Well, I think the critic base is extremely small.

I like to say that in Colorado, we have a radically woke legislature and radically woke boards and commissions, but the people of Colorado are normal.

And in 2026, Families across the state and across the nation are being impacted by these radical policies that have been signed under Governor Polis' term.

So, you know, we at the Colorado Parent Advocacy Network and Protect Kids Colorado, which I'm a proud board member of, we are nonpartisan organizations.

We welcome everybody to join us.

And what we have seen over the last couple of years is that we have people from every political party multiple religious backgrounds that are all coming together under one premise, and that's let kids be kids.

But what other things need to be done? What dramatic things need to be done in order to empower parents because i think a vast majority of parents are running away from the school systems and homeschooling and doing and finding other avenues because they're they're afraid they're they're afraid they're having children they're like i don't even know where to go they can't they can't escape it no matter what state they go to right that's right so so how do we how do we win it back how do we win it back how do we stop asking permission is more the the issue and get to a place where we just wreck it ralph on the on the education system

But what would Proposition 135 do and why is this one worth bringing out as well?

Yeah.

Proposition 135, which protects children from irreversible sex change surgeries for the purpose of gender reassignment.

We are bringing this forward because what we're seeing on the ground is so many young children being kind of convinced into this belief system that somehow that they were born in the wrong body.

And these are children as young as, you know, eight, nine, 10 years old.

And what the practices that we're seeing, we're seeing schools encouraging this by telling students that gender is fluid, that you can become another sex.

It's, you know, something different than what you were born at birth.

Do you view the conversation that these measures are initiating in and of itself to be partial objective because we're seeing so much discussion about these issues and now here's something on the ballot worth talking about?

I

mean, it's been a very long game, and it's definitely not a novel experience, what's happening here in the West.

And all of these strategies that they're deploying, that we're filing Title VI complaints and Title IX complaints, they're all strategies to do one thing, and that is to dismantle the American idea.

And so we recognize and understand that.

I don't know if everybody recognizes and understands it, but we do have a an attack on our American values and our freedom and the values that we hold dear.

And what they are doing by capturing the youth and focusing, you know, getting children to see themselves not as individuals with character and merit, but as they're only seeing themselves through their identity.

And there's so much identity curriculum brought into the school district that you have to recognize and understand that it's surrounding them all day long.

Yes.
