Meet Joel Judd. He supports:

JOBS

My first priority is jobs, jobs and more jobs. Giveaways for the very wealthy have turned the strongest economy in the nation into a serious decline.
Unemployment up, foreclosures up, new jobs down.
I'll put people first and that means a return to programs that create good paying jobs.

EDUCATION

Denver lags behind the rest of the state and Colorado lags behind the nation. Our schools are our future -- I want programs that teach the skills our children need in a changing world -- this means a greater emphasis on foreign languages, math and the sciences. I want a HOPE Scholarship program so that every child has the opportunity to work hard and go to college.

ENVIRONMENT

A healthy environment is critical to a healthy economy -- we need growth but responsible growth that does not sacrifice our future. We need to support mass transit and do more to bring children in our neighborhoods to the joys of the outdoors.

CIVIL RIGHTS AND LIBERTIES

I'm pro-choice -- Discrimination in any form is simply wrong -- I want Colorado to be number one in job creation, number one is education number one in protecting the environment and number one in saying that in this state all are welcome and no one will be held back.

THE ARTS

I support the continued development of our downtown and community arts institutions and artists. Not only do "people not live by bread alone" but the arts create jobs and are important economic contributors to our state and cities.
