The Board of Directors of the Southern Colorado Equality Alliance has unanimously voted to oppose Colorado’s Propositions 134 and 135, calling on our community to vote NO on both measures.

Our organization was founded in response to one of the darkest chapters in Colorado’s history. When Amendment 2 was passed in 1992, earning our state the painful moniker of "the Hate State," community members in Pueblo stood up and formed Pueblo After 2, the foundation of what is today the Southern Colorado Equality Alliance.

We remember where that path led, and we refuse to let history repeat itself.

Propositions 134 and 135 represent a dangerous step backward. We do not want Colorado to ever again be known as the "Hate State." We stand committed to dignity, equality, and protection for all members of our community.

We urge every voter in Southern Colorado and across the state to stand with us in protecting our progress.

Vote NO on Proposition 134

Vote NO on Proposition 135
