** This Week on the Floor
------------------------------------------------------------
Monday the 24th we celebrated Latino Advocacy day here at the Capitol. It was a day to recognize the contributions of Latinos to the state of Colorado and to ensure we create a space that fosters Latino participation in state politics. I sponsored a Resolution to recognize the Maestas Case of 1914, which was the first major step taken to address the segregation of Mexican Americans in the education system.


** Bill Updates
------------------------------------------------------------
SB20-043 ([link removed]) and SB20-113 ([link removed]) that I co-sponsored with Senator Tate both passed on Third Reading in the House on Friday. These bills will head to the Governor's office.
