As labor and union leaders, you have a distinctive role in shaping the socio-economic fabric and future of Colorado. The extraction of oil and gas is a significant contributor to climate change, posing a substantial threat to the world we are leaving for future generations. Despite the oil and gas industry representing a small segment of Colorado’s economy, it creates a disproportionately large impact on our environment and public health.

You are in a crucial position to advocate for policies that ensure a healthier, more sustainable future. Your endorsement can significantly influence the trajectory towards a balanced, healthier, and more prosperous Colorado, where both workers’ rights and environmental interests are protected.
