Another result of this year’s special session on immigration, this referndum would have the State of Colorado sue Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, asking that Gonzales start enforcing the current federal immigration laws. This lawsuit will almost definitely go nowhere, but it will increase public awareness of the fact that the federal government is not doing its job.
YES!

Referendum I is the spiritual opposite of the horrid Amendment 43. Referendum I would legally recognize civil unions in Colorado, regardless of the gender of the members of the civil union. Voting for this amendment should be a no-brainer. It’s the only fair thing to do.
YES!
