Air quality group targets Colorado smokestacks

BY MICHAEL BOOTH THE COLORADO SUN

A series of Colorado’s largest greenhouse gas-emitting sectors have come under the regulatory knife for cuts in recent years: oil and gas producers, gasoline vehicles, large buildings, cement plants and coal- red utilities.

Now a secondary tier of bigname greenhouse gas polluters is facing new rules from an Air Quality Control Commission vote this month, with the goal of 20% emissions reductions from a 2015 benchmark at industrial companies like Suncor, Molson Coors, Cargill Meat Solutions and Leprino Foods.  While the industries argue a 2030 timeline for those cuts is too quick and expensive, environmental and neighborhood groups say the state’s draft rules for the legislationmandated cuts won’t actually

Criticism and anger pervade Thornton Council meeting

BY JANE REUTER JREUTER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A segment of the Sept. 12 ornton City Council meeting reserved for audience participation largely devolved into angry accusations.

Most of the critical comments from citizens who spoke were directed at Mayor Jan Kulmann and some at Councilmember David Acunto. Several accused Kulmann of an “abuse of power” related to the July arrest of a ornton man. e man allegedly violated a protection order requiring him to stay clear of the mayor. Others criticized Acunto for not attending several council meetings.

Kulmann and Acunto both defended their actions during the meeting, sharing details they felt painted a more complete picture of their individual situations. Kulmann’s response matched the ire of the citizens who spoke out.

“I want to apologize to the residents here and to our sta who don’t need to be subject to the

political antics we see here again,” she said. “Our politics have become so aggressive and disappointing, and I hear from residents every day that they’re tired of it. Over the past few weeks, terrible behavior has escalated. Not just here in chambers … but at our community events. It’s gone so far to include intimidation tactics, fear-mongering, blatant lies, and harassment of me and other city sta members, live and in person.

“ is is not about free speech. What is being misrepresented is horrible. is is being harassed as a female and having my personal space violated, and not feeling safe at community events. Please do not let this tactic be accepted in our city.”

Many of the comments centered around ornton resident Dariush Namazi who began attending events this spring where the mayor was present, wearing a bright red MAGA hat and carrying signs that said “Keep ornton Straight, vote Jan K.”

Namazi, 29, calls himself “Danny Kulmann” and claims to be the mayor’s political ally. He de nes his actions as protest and political parody, saying he feels Kulmann is a far-right Republican who won’t admit to being one.

An Adams County magistrate granted Kulmann’s request for a permanent protection order in July. It stated that Namazi must stay at least 15 feet away from the mayor, though he is still allowed to attend council meetings and city events.

Kulmann, elected ornton’s mayor in 2019 and up for re-election this fall, is a registered Republican who made an unsuccessful run for the U.S. House in 2022. She is the senior director of Xcel Energy’s compliance program development.

Namazi was arrested July 27 for allegedly violating that order while at a city ice cream social Kulmann was also attending. Namazi, meanwhile, claims Kulmann “has made many threats and tried to intimidate me many times.” Video shows Kulmann walking toward Namazi during the July 27 event, while he

backs away.

Namazi was among several people who spoke during the council’s Sept. 12 audience participation segment, many of whom o ered harsh words about Kulmann and his recent arrest.

“I know how bad it can get when people in power are abusive when the people in power do not respect democracy, do not respect civil rights,” Namazi said. “In my schooling, I learned about … Martin Luther King Jr. It turns out, he was arrested 29 times. So I want to thank Mayor Jan Kulmann. Because of her actions, her lies, her abuse of power, I got to experience one of my proudest personal moments. When I was arrested for the very rst time in my life, I got to become, at least in one small way, 1/29th the man Martin Luther King was.

“After my experience with you, Jan, I could only imagine what you would have done to King should you have been a leader in the ‘60s.” ornton’s Tracy Crespin also

Governor hears success stories during FRCC visit

BY JANE REUTER JREUTER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Littleton resident Shea Swickle thought the master’s degree he earned in public health was the key to his career future. When he discovered demand for jobs in the eld was limited, Swickle instead pursued training as a sterile processing technician - a behind-the-scenes professional who sterilizes equipment used during surgeries.

Today, thanks to an apprenticeship through Front Range Community College (FRCC), the 39-year-old is a sterile processing technician at AdventHealth Littleton. It’s a job he loves, even more so because he can walk there from his Littleton home.

Last week, Swickle shared that story with Governor Jared Polis, who

visited with students in work-based learning programs at Westminster’s FRCC.

“It made a di erence in my life,” Swickle said. “I have a job that actually has demand.

“A lot of us who went to college never got that job we were hoping for at the end of the rainbow. I saw that apprenticeships were where education was going. e company (you apprentice with) can tailor you to what they want you to be. You’re not just spending time in a classroom and then trying to go out and get a job.”

FRCC partners with local industries to o er apprenticeships in healthcare, manufacturing, IT and other elds. e on-the-job training dovetails with classroom learning. And many employers help appren-

tices with tuition.  at allows people like Swickle to make a career change and incur little or no debt.

Polis has taken numerous steps to support such programs. As a result, Colorado has over 300 active apprenticeship programs with more than 6,000 participants.

“Apprenticeships and work-based learning opportunities are key to creating the workforce of the future,” said Polis, who signed a new executive order Sept. 7 that further expands the programs. “But there is still more work to be done. We must expand opportunities for students and workers of all ages to get the training they need to start or build careers that support them and their families.”

FRCC o ered its rst apprentice-

ship in 2018.

“We’ve grown by leaps and bounds, so much so that we were the rst college in Colorado to be designated a US Department of Labor Apprenticeship Ambassador,” said Rebecca Woulfe, FRCC’s vice president of Academic A airs & Online Learning. “ anks to Governor Polis and the Colorado General Assembly, FRCC also now o ers 30 degrees and certi cates in high-demand elds — at zero cost to students.” is semester, more than 1,500 FRCC students are enrolled in nocost programs supported by state funding. About a dozen of them shared their stories with the governor during his Sept. 8 visit.

FRCC’s surgical technology program, and now works at UCHealth. e program helped him save money that he’s tagging for a future home.

“I was able to get paid for my clinicals; that was de nitely a huge plus,” he said. “I still live at home, and I’m trying to buy a house.

“I have been at my job over a year now, and I’m loving it. I’m doing surgeries every day. I’m helping people, and it’s lots of fun.”

Sarah Enochson, 52 of Longmont, lost her long-time job as a writer at a greeting card company in 2020. She enrolled in graphic design classes at FRCC to expand her skillset.

“I caught the bug,” she said. “It brought out a side of me that was obviously there all along, but hadn’t been developed.

“I’ve had moments of self-doubt throughout because it’s hard to start over at this point in life, but I’ve had encouragement all the way through.”

Much of that came through an internship at a graphic design agency on FRCC’s Boulder campus.

“ at’s an opportunity I would not have had in a classroom,” she said. “It gave me the opportunity to deepen my understanding of graphic design and grow as a leader. It’s given me something to put on my resume that shows a breadth of experience and ability, and exposed me to di erent paths within the graphic design eld.

“I have three college-aged kids. And I’m encouraging all of them to get any paid experience they can. It puts you at an advantage over all the other students that don’t have that experience. It makes you a known entity to someone. And often, it leads to your job. It’s as important as any of the classes you take.”

Polis spoke little during his visit, instead asking the students questions and listening to the students.

He said the administration is pursuing an apprenticeship tax credit for businesses and taking other measures designed to ramp up participation.

Polis and several Colorado business leaders recently visited Switzerland to learn more about their apprenticeship program. Apprenticeships are deeply rooted in Swiss society, providing a well-established career pathway and contributing to a low youth unemployment rate and low student debt.

“ ey have the apprentice model really ingrained into everything they do there,” he said. “We took major employers with us to Switzerland … so they can see what that looks like in a place where it’s well established.

“It’s newer to America. It’s a little bit of an education process here. We want to grow it here.”

Friends honor beloved Betty Adams teacher

Hundreds who loved Joe TeBockhorst gather to rename former Trentwood Park

BY JANE REUTER JREUTER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Westminster teacher Joe TeBockhorst’s friends created a park in his honor packed with all his favorite things: kickball, a dunk tank, Gatorade and most importantly, a

crowd of people he had loved.

And those people, most attired in green “Joe T. Strong” T-shirts, deeply loved him.

Many of the adults at the Sept. 9 event at Betty Adams Elementary School called TeBockhorst their best friend, and even more students identi ed him as their favorite teacher. All spoke of him with still-lingering grief, but an even stronger appreciation for the joy he brought to their lives.

TeBockhorst died of stomach cancer on Sept. 9, 2022. He was 39.

“He was probably the best human being you’d ever meet,” said

Roast Beef Dinner

Je Richard, who coached soccer with TeBockhorst. “When he came into a room, you’d just smile. He was that guy.”

“He was the kind of coach and teacher you’d want — enthusiastic, competitive, fun, silly but strict,” said longtime friend Kyleigh Shipp, who met TeBockhorst in a Colorado State University dormitory when the two lived across the hall from one another. “It sucks the world is living without him, but he brought so much joy and happiness to it while he was here.”  e Westminster native taught at Betty Adams Elementary from 2007 until 2022. He also coached soccer for Westminster Parks and Recreation from 2015 to 2022.

“He will always be remembered by his students for his wild personality,” his sister-in-law Gretchen TeBockhorst wrote. “Each year, Joe would allow his students to duct tape him to the agpole, dunk him in the school fundraiser dunk tank and wrap him entirely in wrapping paper during the holiday season.

“After school, he could be found rapping rhymes in math club, outrunning the students in running club and making t-shirts with the student council. His antics made him a favorite among many of his students over the years. Teaching wasn’t a job for Joe; it was a way of life.”

One of TeBockhorst’s nal re-

quests was that the park nearest the school, formerly Trentwood Park, be dedicated in his name.  at dedication, held one year after his passing, drew students, friends and school community members, along with Westminster re ghters, police and city council members.

Even those at the event who never knew TeBockhorst spoke with a clear sense of the loss he represents to the community. Westminster Mayor Nancy McNally said council members began to understand the magnitude of his in uence when a group of TeBockhorst’s friends came to a meeting in early 2023 to request the park dedication.

“It was clear to us Mr. T was an important member of the community when you came and lled the council chambers,” she said, adding that as the council learned more about TeBockhorst, “ ere wasn’t a dry eye among us.”

“On behalf of our city council, we share your loss and are so very sorry,” she said. “It is your responsibility to make sure he lives on in this park.”

TeBockhorst’s wife, Melissa, and children Troy, Kayla and Carter unveiled the new sign together.

“He would have loved this,” Melissa TeBockhorst said, taking in the crowd that lled the newly named park. “You can tell that he touched a lot of people.”

State GOP seeks gender care ban

BY JESSE PAUL AND SANDRA FISH THE COLORADO SUN

Colorado GOP Chairman Dave Williams formed an issue committee late last month to support a forthcoming 2024 ballot measure that would ban “child gender reassignment medical procedures” in the state.

Tom Bjorklund, treasurer of the Colorado Republican Party, is listed as the designated ling agent for the committee, called “Let Kids Be Kids.” e group’s address was originally listed as the Colorado GOP’s headquarters in Greenwood Village. It was changed to a post o ce box in Grand Junction, where Bjorklund lives.

Williams on con rmed to e Colorado Sun that he formed the committee.

“ is is an issue that will certainly unite Republicans across Colorado,” Williams told e Sun, “but it’s a separate legal e ort apart from the party.”

e state’s Title Board hasn’t received a proposed 2024 ballot measure to ban medical procedures

related to gender-a rming care for children in Colorado. Williams said the initiative is still in the works.

“We are nalizing language soon and are using other state laws that have recently passed around the country as a framework,” Williams said. He said the de nition of “child gender reassignment medical procedures” is still being ironed out, but said the measure will generally aim to prevent children from receiving medications or surgeries related to gender-a rming care. at mayinclude hormone blockers that prevent teens from going through puberty.

Stopping juveniles from getting gender-a rming surgery or medical treatment has become a focus of Williams and right-wing Republicans across the country. Twenty-one states have banned gender-a rming care for people younger than age 18, according to the Human Rights Campaign. An additional seven states are considering such bans.

Pettersen pushes for naloxone access

Congresswoman proposes legislation to expand access to overdose drug

BY TAYLER SHAW TSHAW@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

With thousands of Americans dying each year due to opioid overdoses, health professionals and a Colorado congresswoman are working to change federal law so that more hospitals are reimbursed for giving people an antidote — naloxone.

Naloxone, commonly referred to as Narcan, is a medicine that reverses an opioid overdose, according to the National Institute on Drug Abuse.

It is the most powerful tool to prevent opioid overdose deaths, said Don Stader, an emergency and addiction medicine physician at Swedish Medical Center in Englewood and the executive director of e Naloxone Project.

For too long, many people struggling with addiction have had to go to a pharmacy to get naloxone, he said.

“We have a miraculous drug that should be in everyone’s hands,” Stader said. “But what we’ve done for too long is we’ve said, ‘Let’s hide it in a place further away.’”

Only one naloxone prescription is dispensed for every 70 high-dose opioid prescriptions, according to the CDC.

Stader said less than 2% of people ll a prescription for naloxone after an overdose.

Hoping to increase access to naloxone, Democratic Rep. Brittany Pettersen, of Colorado’s District 7, introduced the Hospitals As Naloxone Distribution Sites (HANDS) Act on National Overdose Awareness Day,

which was Aug. 31.

e bill aims to require Medicare, Medicaid and TRICARE to cover hospital providers physically handing naloxone to patients upon discharge if they are identi ed as at-risk of an opioid overdose.

“We’re taking this work at the national level to make sure that, across the country, that people who are the most vulnerable for an overdose actually have this life-saving medication,” Pettersen said.

Bringing Colorado’s work to a national level

Stader has been working on expanding access to naloxone for years.

In 2021, he created e Naloxone Project with the goal of getting all hospitals, labor and delivery units, and emergency departments to distribute naloxone to at-risk patients.

As reported by e Colorado Sun in December 2022, all 108 hospital emergency departments in Colorado agreed to o er take-home doses of naloxone to any patient treated for an overdose, and 14 out of 48 labor and delivery units in Colorado committed to do so as well.

Stader also helped lead an e ort to change state laws surrounding insurance reimbursement and regulation, per e Colorado Sun.

Passed in 2020, House Bill 1065 mandated coverage by private insurers in Colorado for dispensed naloxone from hospitals, according to e Naloxone Project.

In 2022, the passage of House Bill 1326 mandated coverage by Colorado Medicaid for dispensed naloxone from hospitals. It also made it so that hospitals may dispense naloxone with “less regulation or threat of penalty for not complying with board of pharmacy regulations,” per the project.

Stader said Colorado had to

change its rules to provide better care to patients, and now, the rules need to be changed across the country.

“We have to create the payment mechanism to actually send people home with the drug, so that we’re not asking hospitals to just do this for free,” Stader said. “While hospitals are charitable, they’re not charities, right? ey’re businesses, and we should be reimbursing them to provide high level care.”

On top of creating the payment mechanism, Stader said the HANDS Act asks the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA,mto strip away some regulations he says have “made it impossible to do this in many communities.”

Across the country, medicine is regulated by the board of medicine, the board of pharmacy and hospital regulations, and too many of them say hospital providers cannot give out naloxone, Stader said.

He said a lot of the obstacles make sense when it comes to other drugs. For example, hospital providers should not give antibiotics to everyone because it will lead to resistant bugs to antibiotics. Other drugs like chemotherapy drugs should also be tightly regulated, he said.   “Naloxone has only one purpose and has very little side e ects. is is not a drug that we should shackle,” Stader said. “ is is a drug that we should free and make sure that there’s no regulation standing in front of what would be great policy, great action that will save the lives of thousands of Americans.”

More than 100,000 drug overdose deaths in 2022

Drug overdose continues to be a major public health issue in the U.S., the FDA said in July.  e predicted number of drug

overdose deaths in the U.S. in 2022 was 109,680, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Nearly 83,000 were predicted opioid-involved drug overdose deaths.

Like many people, Congresswoman Pettersen has been impacted by the opioid epidemic.

When Pettersen was around 6 years old, her mom was prescribed opioids after a back injury. Her mom became addicted and she eventually started using heroin, Pettersen said.

As fentanyl came into the drug supply chain, Pettersen’s mom, who has now been in recovery for about six years, started overdosing “at a very high rate,” Pettersen said.

“I had been to the hospital so many times with my mom, and we were never talked to about our options for naloxone,” Pettersen said. “I didn’t even know that this was an option.”

For a long time, naloxone was a prescription drug, said Robert Valuck, the executive director of the Colorado Consortium for Prescription Drug Abuse Prevention. Now, it is an over-the-counter drug, he said.

e FDA approved two nonprescription naloxone products, both of which are nasal sprays, earlier this year.

“It’s not a new drug,” Valuck said. “We’ve just been hiding it for too long.”

Ricky Dhaliwal, an emergency medicine physician representing the American College of Emergency Physicians, said there is no question that naloxone saves lives.

“ e data is clear — providing naloxone to patients when they leave the hospital is much more e ective than providing

“ e funding will allow us to make signi cant improvements on how we use water for our farmers,” Ricks pointed out. “Everybody is using this water, so we really need to look at that.”

e measure has already spurred $400 million in new investments in Colorado and added at least 850 new jobs, according to a Climate Power report. Hesperus Primergy Solar is building a 1,900 acre solar project, and CS Wind said it will expand the largest wind turbine factory in the world, located in Pueblo. e expansion will add two new buildings and triple the workforce, rivaling the state’s steel

“Your legislation will ensure that naloxone or other overdose reversal agents are covered under Medicare, Medicaid, or TRICARE at no

plant.

Alex Cornell du Houx, president and co-founder of the group Elected O cials to Protect America and a former state representative in Maine, said the In ation Reduction Act will advance the nation’s security, health and prosperity. He noted the new law is spurring a slew of private investments, including a new U.S. based manufacturing plant, which will produce enough batteries to power 10 million electric vehicles each year.

“It creates a clean energy future,” Cornell du Houx asserted. “In the last eight months, we’ve seen 96 gigawatts of new clean power announced. at’s enough to power

Seeking solace in Colorado

Families with transgender kids state a welcoming place

BY ALISON BERG AND ELLE NAEF ROCKY MOUNTAIN PBS

Brianna went to bed Aug. 22 with a knot in her stomach.

at night, a Texas school board near her home passed a “Don’t Say Trans” policy barring employees from discussing what the district de ned as “gender uidity.”

e school board’s new policy was the latest entry in growing, rightwing political playbook that targets transgender youth and the adults who support them.

Months before the school board’s

decision, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, a Republican, ordered the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services to conduct child abuse investigations into parents whose children received gender-a rming care such as puberty blockers and hormone therapy. Abbott’s decision was in line with the heavily conservative state legislature, which had introduced more anti-transgender bills than any other state.

In 2020, Brianna’s son, Rylee, came out as a transgender boy. He was 12 years old at the time.

Brianna and her family moved to Texas — which has one of the largest transgender communities in the country — in 2015 to be closer to their extended family. Brianna knew the small town they called home was far from progressive, but she expect-

ed to largely be left alone as she and her family kept their heads down and raised LGBTQ+ children.

But the state’s policies seemed to get crueler over time. Brianna knew her family wasn’t safe.

“I went to bed knowing what was happening and woke up the next day thinking, ‘we have to leave,’” Brianna recalled. “‘We have to get out of Texas. is is not going to get better; it is just going to get worse.’”

She spent the following day researching states that were more welcoming to transgender people.

e Paci c Northwest was too rainy, California was too expensive, Minnesota was too cold. She booked a 24-hour trip to Colorado — which received high marks from places like the Movement Advancement Project — to vet the state, making sure to ask folks she encountered about its safety for LGBTQ+ kids.

As she drove around Denver and saw rainbow ags plastered in business windows and hanging outside homes, Brianna knew where to move.

“It was so overwhelmingly positive and welcoming,” she said of Colorado. “In Texas, you couldn’t even talk about this stu .”

e family voted in the Nov. 8 Texas election, feeling they owed their votes to friends in similar situations who couldn’t leave the state. ree days later, they packed their bags and started their journey to Aurora.

Lucas and Sara had deep roots in Texas. Lucas worked at a nonpro t supporting kids in the foster care system; Sara taught music at a private school. e two had family and deep friendships in the state.

But fear overwhelmed them in February 2022 after Abbott declared gender-a rming care for children a form of child abuse. e couple’s son, Alec, came out as transgender years earlier and began transitioning soon after.

Bullying and harassment were common for Alec in his small Texas town, but when laws began to threaten his safety, his parents knew something needed to change.

“ ere was a moment where I just imagined Alec being taken from our family,” Sara said. “Just having to process that was extremely scary and upsetting.”

Lucas and Sara became more

outspoken in their LGBTQ+ allyship by helping plan Pride festivals and volunteering with Equality Texas.

Alec did his best to t in at school. He wore baggy, unassuming clothes and tried to keep his head down.

“ ere were so many times where I was like ‘if I just de-transitioned and lived, I could live easier here,’ but the dysphoria makes things so hard,” said Alec, who is now 15 years old. “It wouldn’t have been a happy life for me.”

Other parents began complaining that Sara was using her position as a teacher to “push an agenda.” Sara maintains she never discussed politics in class.

“It was very clear that we were being targeted because this was a relatively small town and we had been outspoken,” Lucas said. “I knew this was really scary and we worried about what could happen to our family.”

Brianna and Rylee also remember living in fear.

“How exhausting it was, not knowing day-to-day what laws were going to be passed that would hurt my child and not understanding why it’s something that people care about,” Brianna said. “I don’t understand the vitriol towards these kids who just want to exist and the parents who just want their kids to survive.”

Brianna tried to educate those around her and give them the bene t of the doubt. But many people didn’t seem interested in learning.

“It’s extremely frustrating and there’s no amount of education I could do,” Brianna said. “You think you can educate people away from bad beliefs, but they’re not interested in the truth. ey’re interested in their narrative and that’s it.”

Lucas and Sara remember having conversations with Alec where they reminded him not to stand out too much, which was a painful message to send for two parents who wanted nothing more than to a rm their child.

“We did a lot of apologizing to the kids and saying, ‘I’m sorry you can’t wear what you’d like to wear because we need to be careful right now,’’ Sara recalled. “I remember saying that a lot. ‘We need to be careful right now.’”

e family also helped plan a kidfriendly Pride celebration in their town, hoping to show marginalized children that adults were on their side. However, several other adults, including an anti-LGBTQ+ Instagram “in uencer,” showed up and chanted “groomer” at those participating in the festival.

“It was really weird because I grew up there and that place just turned on me,” Alec said.

e family had lived in their town for 14 years and felt it was important to stay and ght for other LGBTQ+ people. But as anti-transgender bills stacked up and hateful rhetoric grew louder, Lucas and Sara saw that their family’s safety was in jeopardy.

“It was a constant state of anxiety and fear,” Lucas said. “All it would take was one person in our town

who didn’t like us and report us and we would’ve had a CPS case that we would be dealing with.”

In 2023, the family said goodbye to their longtime church, colleagues and friends and moved to Denver, where they felt safer in their new home.

e contrast between living in fear and living in a state with codi ed LGBTQ+ rights has been immense, the families told Rocky Mountain PBS.

“I’ve met some really sweet people here,” Alec said. “It de nitely feels like a whole reset.”

ough they know things are safer in Colorado, Alec, Sara and Lucas said it has been a struggle to shake the feeling of fear, as they lived in ght-or- ight mode for so long.

“We’ve only been in Colorado for a few months and I feel like I’m still letting go of some of those anxieties and fear and worries,” Lucas said.

Some of the anxiety and fear dissipated after the family connected

with other LGBTQ+ Coloradans.

During their rst week in town, they attended a drag brunch in which the performer a rmed the transgender kids in attendance.

“It was really emotional for me, because we had left a bad situation so recently,” Alec said. “It was really heartwarming to hear that.”

As Alec navigates his transition, he said many of his peers treat him “like Google.” ey ask him invasive questions, he said, which can sometimes make him feel like a political prop.

“I become their search engine and it’s so strange,” he added.

When he is not advocating for his rights, Alec enjoys watercolor painting. His family has a collection of chickens he painted on their walls.

Sara tries to encourage Alec to simply be a kid.

“Having to speak to other adults about what it’s like to be trans, that’s a lot of responsibility,” Sara said. “I know it’s important but it’s very

heavy and it’s not a normal childhood.”

As state legislatures introduced a record number of anti-transgender laws targeting children, many adults have stepped up to try and ease burdens on young adults.

“We try to just make sure we’re doing the things that help them in life and society,” said Sandra Zapata, director of youth services at the Center on Colfax, an LGBTQ+ community center in Denver. “A lot of it is just making sure they know they have a space to come, and once they nd us, it’s a good place to make connections so folks will create those personal relationships with each other.”

Zapata leads the Rainbow Alley, a youth program at the Center on Colfax Avenue. Both Rylee and Alec attend Rainbow Alley and said they’ve made many friends and connections there.

In June, the Colorado GOP sent out an email saying, “Democrats support groomers who ‘teach’ your children about so-called gender a rming care … this is sick and the Colorado Republican Party will speak against it.”

Williams also blasted fellow Republicans who signed onto a May 1 letter asking the Montana House of Representatives, which is controlled by the GOP, to reconsider its decision to prohibit transgender Rep. Zooey Zephyr from its chamber. Zephyr, a Democrat, was barred from the Montana House in April after refusing to apologize for saying that lawmakers in that state who supported a ban on gender-a rming care for kids would have “blood” on their hands.

Colorado is one of at least eight states that have laws protecting gender-a rming health care.

A handful of other residents addressed the council about more pedestrian issues, including safety and maintenance concerns.

e Drum of Disapproval

Councilmembers had varied reactions to the barrage of mostly negative comments.

Councilmember Julia Marvin thanked the audience.

“ e fact that you come week after week when you’re ignored

Rep. Brianne Titone, an Arvada Democrat and the Colorado legislature’s rst transgender lawmaker, was a lead sponsor of Senate Bill 188 this year, which prohibits state courts, law enforcement and regulators from recognizing or participating in out-of-state criminal or civil proceedings around abortions or gender-a rming care.

Titone predicted voters would reject a proposed ban on gendera rming care if it were to end up on the ballot, just as Colorado voters have rejected ballot measures seeking to restrict abortion access.

“ is is abortion 2.0, and (Republicans are) losing on abortion,” she said. “So they’re trying to use this as their rallying call.”

One Colorado, an LGBTQ+ advocacy group, said it will oppose Williams’ initiative.

“It would take life-saving medical care away from transgender youth. Colorado is better than this,” said Executive Director Nadine Bridges.

“Transgender youth should not be used for political gain or feeble attempts to seek attention, and we are con dent voters will reject this

Mayor Pro Tem Jessica Sandgren said not all the information citizens brought to the council was accurate. She focused on the city’s recent accomplishments, including the future redevelopment of a ornton shopping center, construction of a new community center, several new businesses and other improvements planned as

Getting a measure on the statewide ballot isn’t easy.

Williams and Bjorklund would need to get ballot language approved by the state’s Title Board and then gather more than 125,000 signatures from Colorado voters to get their question before voters in 2024.

Most groups pay signature gatherers to get their measure on the ballot, but that can cost well over $1 million — money the Colorado GOP, whose fundraising has been hamstrung, doesn’t have.

Colorado Republicans are in a his-

part of the 2024 budget.

“It’s easy to beat the drum of disapproval week after week when your focus is on things you don’t think you have,” she said. “I can and will continue to call out the ridiculous misinformation that’s presented each week.”

“Wow, what a night,” Councilmember Kathy Henson said. “It is our job to run the city and respond to residents. It’s great and it’s wonderful and it’s frustrating.

“I’m going to keep showing up. I want you all to keep showing up and I want to keep having discussions about what’s great, to identify what’s not great and see what we can do to get it to great for everybody.”

Tips to protect child’s mental health from social media use

Social media can be a great tool to help build connections, stay informed and engage with others. However, it can become all-consuming and potentially damaging to adolescent brain development, which is a cause for concern.

A recent advisory issued by U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy calls attention to the potentially harmful e ects social media has on children’s mental health. According to the report, 95% of teens ages 13-17 say they use social media, with more than a third saying they use it “almost constantly.” In addition, 40% of children ages 8-12 use social media, even though most platforms require users to be at least 13 to participate.

According to a study in the report, teens who spend more than three hours a day on social media face twice the risk of experiencing mental health issues, such as depression and anxiety. Other potential issues referenced in the report include:

• Body dissatisfaction, or disordered eating behaviors

• Social comparison

• Lower self-esteem

• Poor sleep

e information in this report corroborates with the what UnitedHealthcare providers are often seeing: an increased rate of harmful comparison, limited in-person interaction, feelings of loneliness and an uptick in anxiety, depression and

GUEST COLUMN

other mental health issues. Dr. Donald Tavakoli, national medical director for behavioral health at UnitedHealthcare, says the amount of time children spend online a ects their overall development.

e Surgeon General’s advisory comes as youth mental health remains in a state of crisis. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 1 in 5 children have a mental, emotional or behavioral disorder and only about 20% of those children receive care from a mental health provider. ese ndings may be alarming for parents and tackling the issues surrounding social media use may feel overwhelming as well. esetips may help you and your child become more informed about social media use and, in turn, reduce potential harm:

Understand and monitor social media

Having a bit of background on the latest social media apps can help parents create better limits and boundaries for their kids. As children’s brains go through dramatic developmental changes, they could develop sensitivities associated with

a desire for attention and may have undeveloped self-control, especially during early adolescence. Social channels that promote “likes” or excessive scrolling may pose issues for developing brains. Limit chat functions, especially with strangers, and restrict inappropriate content.

Create a family social media plan

Set guidelines and boundaries when it comes to your family’s social media use. is can be agreed-upon expectations of what social media use looks like to your family, including screen time limits, online safety and protecting personal privacy.  e Academy of Pediatrics has a template that can guide you through the process.

Communication is key

Initiate open and honest conversations, without judgement, with your child about their activity on social media on a regular basis. Ask them about what they see on social media and pose hypotheticals, asking how they would respond in di erent scenarios. Ensure they know the signs of cyberbullying, and how permanent an online post can be.

Create tech-free zones

It can be helpful to restrict electronic use at least one hour before bedtime and through the night. Studies show two or more hours of screentime in the evening can greatly

disrupt the melatonin surge needed to fall asleep. Keep mealtimes free from technology and encourage in-person conversations. Encourage children to foster in-person friendships and build social skills.

Model healthy social media behavior

Children often learn by watching your behaviors and habits, so make sure you’re limiting the time you spend on social media and be responsible with what you choose to post. When you are on your device, tell your children what you’re doing. While the Surgeon General’s advisory focuses on the potential negative impacts of social media use on children and teens, it also acknowledges social media can provide some bene ts. It can be helpful in creating community connection over shared interests, abilities and identities or providing space for self-expression. Encouraging children to form healthy relationships with technology is critical.

Adults cannot a ord to wait to understand the full impact of social media because adolescents’ brains are still developing. It’s crucial that parents take an active role in helping their children safely navigate social media.

Westminster candidate forums set

Thanks to the Adams County and Je erson County League of Women Voters organizations, the Heart of Westminster (formerly the Westminster Progressive HOA) and the Observatory Heights HOA, the public will have the opportunity to hear Westminster’s candidates speak at two di erent public forums.

Board of Education will share their perspectives on Oct. 4 also at the Grange with doors open at 6:30 p.m. and introductions at 7 p.m.. e Jeffco League of Women Voters and the Heart of Westminster are sponsoring this forum.

ese forums are important for voters to hear rsthand the positions of all candidates on important issues facing our city and one of our school districts. Don’t strictly rely on the door hangers and social media statements. It’s like former President George H.W. Bush once said, “Read

my lips.”

It’s best to hear answers to questions from the horse’s mouth. (I know….too many cliches). Refreshments will be served and bring your questions.

Name calling and accusations could cost Trump

Are you aware that former President Donald Trump signed a pledge with the court as a part of his Fulton County, Georgia indictment pro-

Dr. Kimberly Nordstrom

Bill Christopher

cessing? e pledge states he will not “intimidate or attempt to intimidate” o cers of the court.

is was in response to Judge Tanya Chutkan’s concerns that Trump would intimidate court employees, witnesses in the cases and attorneys for the prosecution.

Guess what? is is like trying to control a bull in a china closet. It has not kept Trump from making disparaging comments on his web site as well as reposting posts.

e pledge was quite clear as to what could happen if he violates it. e agreement he signed stated “Violating any of the foregoing conditions of release (of his arrest) may result in the immediate issuance of a warrant for your arrest, a revocation of your release, an order of detention, a forfeiture of any bond, and a prosecution for contempt of court and could result in imprisonment, a ne or both.”

So, Mr. Trump is walking a ne line with his typical, degrading quotes and repostings. What are the odds he will be cited for violating the agreement? Why does he push the limits all the time?

My guess is Judge Chutkan will test his iron will. Stay tuned!

How a small number of people can cause such political havoc

If it weren’t for the U.S. House members of the Freedom Caucus, I doubt that Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy would have announced committee assignments to launch a House impeachment inquiry involving President Biden.

is small ultra-right group has been threatening McCarthy over keeping his position as Speaker. ey contend he is not tough enough in pursuing their agenda of major budget cuts and going after Biden.

So, we have a few causing major, serious actions for the many to handle. It is important to note that McCarthy did not call for a vote of the entire House of Representatives to launch the investigation. He knew that he did not have su cient votes even within his own party to get the approval. So, he got the ball rolling with the committee assignments.

On a related matter, the deadline to approve the new scal budget is looming large by the end of September. While negotiators from both

sides huddle, there is a lot of chatter of the federal government defaulting on its nancial obligations. How many times have we heard that before??

Superintendent Pamela Swanson announces her retirement

In case you missed it (I never did receive the requested press release), Westminster Public Schools Superintendent of Schools Dr. Pamela Swanson has announced her plans to retire at the end of the current school year.

Her career in public education spans almost 40 years with the last 28 years serving Adams County School District 50/Westminster Public Schools. Initially, she came to District 50 as an elementary school principal in 1995. She then advanced to the Human Resources Department and then served as Deputy Superintendent. With the upheaval and departure of then Superintendent Roberta Selleck, Swanson was named interim superintendent in 2011. She was hired as Superintendent of Schools in 2012 and will nish in that position in 2024.

Congratulations to Dr. Swanson on her successful career in public education.

Proud Boys aren’t so Proud today

In late 2020, the Proud Boys arrived in Washington, D.C. strutting their stu in their black and gold out ts with their logos proudly declaring their a liation with a far-right group with a track record of violence. Mostly white men from all over America, they came with their body armor and helmets, bear spray, brass knuckles, guns and other weapons. ey were a force be reckoned with.

en, weeks later on Jan. 6, 2021, the Proud Boys were a driving force in the rioting and attack on the U.S. Capitol. eir involvement did not go unnoticed. Dozens of their members have been found guilty of crimes in connection with this planned attack.

e four leaders of the Proud Boys - Henry “Enrique” Tarrio, Ethan Nordean, Joe Biggs and Zachary Rehl - have all been convicted in engaging in seditious conspiracy to keep Donald Trump in power by force. Among these four, their sentences range from 15 to 22 years in federal prison.

Now, there is a group within the Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives who say the Jan.

SPETTEL Jason John Spettel

January 10, 1980 - September 7, 2023

Jason Spettel, 43, of Denver, Colorado, passed away on September 7, 2023 in a tragic motorcycle accident. He was born in Hayward, California. During his childhood, Jason lived in six di erent states before settling in what he fondly called “home” –Green Bay, Wisconsin, where he graduated from Ashwaubenon High School in 1998. Jason’s adventurous spirit brought him to Denver where he could enjoy the mountains during his adult life.

roughout the years Jason wore many hats—motorcycle enthusiast, gifted mechanic, computer specialist, tattoo connoisseur, card player, movie lover, and a dedicated Green Bay Packers fan. He could frequently be spotted zipping through mountain roadways on his bike because that was his ultimate passion. He also had a knack for xing and repairing things like cars, his beloved motorcycles and anything computer related.

Apart from his passions, Jason had a playful side. Bowling nights, pool games and his vast hobby collections spoke of a man who

believed in living life to the fullest. He cherished deep conversations, hearty laughs, while also valued solitude at home with his beloved labrador dogs, Alpine and Timber.

Jason is survived by his mother Diane (Spettel) Riley (Steve), brother Justin Spettel (Christine), ex-wife Jennifer Spettel, halfsisters Kathie Button and Kelley Spettel, half-brother Chris Spettel and Step-Brother Stephen Riley (Katie). Along with well-loved nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, and cousins. He is preceded in death by his father Jack Spettel, his half-brother John Spettel and his fur babies Canyon and Summit.

While his time on earth was cut short, the mark he left behind is meaningful. He designed his life exactly as he envisioned. True to his nature he lived an enjoyable and ful lling life.

Our heartfelt gratitude goes out to the rst responders from Westminster Station 4, the Westminster police, and the dedicated sta at Good Samaritan Hospital. We also extend our thanks to the kind-hearted individuals who assisted at the scene.

UNIQUE EATERIES

FORMER FOOD WRITER POINTS TO RESTAURANTS OUTSIDE THE CENTRAL CITY THAT STAND OUT

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Mark Antonation endeavored to eat at every restaurant on Federal Boulevard in Denver city limits. He started near Hampden Avenue on the south end and made his way up above 50th Avenue on the other end, north of Interstate 70.

Skipping national-chain and dollar-a-scoop joints, he ate food from one restaurant each week. He did that for about 75 weeks.

So Antonation, the former food editor at Westword, knows a thing or two about the Denver metro area’s restaurant scene.

He had set out to capture the

spirit of the storied Federal Boulevard — with its authentic Asian and Mexican eateries — about a decade ago, but his food writing travels also took him through the suburbs outside Denver.

What makes the Denver area’s food scene di erent from other parts of the country is how the di erent cuisines are spread out and, in a way, “integrated,” he said.

“In other cities, say you want to nd a Chinese restaurant. You’re probably (going to) go to a district where there’s a high concentration of that or any other style,” Antonation said.

But in “metro Denver, especially when you hit the outskirts — ornton, Broom eld, those areas — it’s a lot more mixed,” he said.

TOP LEFT: Javier Cruz, owner of Garibaldi Mexican Bistro, sits at the restaurant on Sept. 6 in Englewood. Cruz emphasized what he says is the unique nature of his menu compared to other Mexican restaurants.

And there’s good news for foodies in the suburbs: With real estate becoming so expensive, a lot of new restaurants are opening in the north Douglas County area, Antonation said.

Elsewhere, around “Westminster and ornton and Broom eld, there’s a lot of Asian restaurants opening up there, Chinese and ai speci cally,” Antonation said.

“If you live in the suburbs — if you live outside the suburban area even — it’s probably going to keep getting more interesting for you,” Antonation said.

Colorado Community Media asked Antonation what restaurants outside of Denver stand out to him. Here are some of his favorites — places where you might encounter dishes that you can’t nd anywhere else.

gas right across from the Gothic eatre, you might never notice that there’s a restaurant in the same building as a Conoco convenience store.

Years ago, Javier Cruz stopped to get gas there, and a small food outlet was serving burgers at the time.

“And kids said, ‘Can we get fries?’” Cruz said, recalling how he noticed the restaurant.

Cruz spoke to someone with the business who said of the small space: “You want it? Take it,” Cruz recalled.

Di erent food outlets have come and gone at that spot — Cruz still receives mail for many other businesses, he said.

But eight years in at that location, Cruz and his family are still serving up food that he says sets them apart from other Mexican restaurants in the area. He put up a wall to separate the restaurant from the gas station part of the building, adding new paint and artwork and a new ambiance.

With heritage from Mexico City, his family felt that “we never nd this kind of food here,” Cruz said. “So when we opened this restaurant, we said we’ve got to sell this.”

He recommends the food on the “menu Azteca,” featuring dishes made with cactus that he says make Garibaldi unique.

You can nd Garibaldi Mexican Bistro on Broadway a few blocks north of Hampden Avenue in Englewood.

Chile con Quesadilla in Brighton e Chile con Quesadilla food trucks opened on March 15, 2020, just before the response to the coronavirus pandemic intensi ed and restaurants and bars stopped sit-down service.

“We were never shut down due to being classi ed as ‘take-out’ and gained exposure at a rapid pace when many restaurants were shut down,” said Christina Richardson, co-owner of Chile con Quesadilla. “We frequently went to neighborhoods, apartment complexes, HOAs and served food to people who were staying in their neighborhoods (and) homes while on lockdown.”

Since Chile con Quesadilla started, Richardson and her husband Jason have received several local awards for their food, and they recently opened a brick-and-mortar Chile con Quesadilla restaurant location in Brighton.

“Our liquor license got approved on May 5, 2023, and (we) have been operating since,” Richardson said.

She says that Chile con Quesadilla is “not traditional in any sense.”

“We create many di erent and unique avor combinations, for a Mexican-American

fusion with a multi-award-winning green chile at the heart of a lot of the recipes,” Richardson said.

Her top sellers include birria, or beef, tacos and the BBQ bacon brisket tacos, dubbed “ e Triple B.”

“We are a quesadilla concept, but anything on the menu can be ordered in the form of quesadillas, tacos, nachos, sandwiches or a bowl, essentially turning nine menu options into 45 di erent items,” Richardson said.

You can nd the Chile con Quesadilla restaurant on Main Street in Brighton, a couple blocks north of Bridge Street or state Highway 7.

Hong Kong Station in Centennial

A bustling dinner crowd came on Sept. 6 to Hong Kong Station, a restaurant that stands out among Chinese eateries.

“It’s kind of an unusual Chinese restaurant for Americans because a lot of the food is in uenced by Europeans who settled in Hong Kong, so they have a baked rice dish that has like a pork chop and Italian-style tomato sauce,” said Antonation, the former food writer.

e restaurant also serves traditional Hong Kong-style Chinese food, but it’s well known for its Hong Kong French toast, Antonation said.

He describes that dish as two thick slices of white bread usually with peanut butter and an egg batter, pan-fried and served with a big slab of butter.

“I think it was the rst place I knew of in metro Denver that was serving this, and it’s kind of become a trendy dish lately,” Antonation said.

You can nd the restaurant at 6878 S. Yosemite St., a bit south of Arapahoe Road in Centennial.

Farmhouse Thai Eatery in Lakewood

One of Antonation’s favorite newer ai places is Farmhouse ai in Lakewood near 1st Avenue and Wadsworth Boulevard.

“ eir dishes tend to, I would say, capture traditional avors, but they do a lot of interesting modern presentations or updates on traditional fare without straying too far from the canon,” Antonation said.

Wholly Stromboli in Fort Lupton

A standout Italian restaurant far north of Denver serves a Detroit-style, thick-crust pizza, Antonation said.

“And the weird thing is that the pan is rectangular and has a rectangular hole in the middle … and so the advantage is that every slice has a crusty edge, unlike a normal Detroit-style pizza where you’ve got some with a soft edge and crusty edge,” Antonation said of Wholly Stromboli.

You can nd that restaurant at 410 Denver Ave. in Fort Lupton.

The spirit of Led Zeppelin returns to Red Rocks

Despite the fact that most people go to Red Rocks to see some of the music industry’s biggest names, I love that a handful of times during the season, audiences attend to just hear the music of some of their favorite artists – artists that can’t tour any more. It’s like the world’s best amphitheater turns into the biggest bar stage around.

at’s the case with Get the Led Out, an evening honoring the music of rock legends Led Zeppelin. You’ll get to her top notch covers of some of rock’s most important songs — your “Stairway to Heaven,” your “Whole Lotta Love,” your “Kashmir.” If you’re a fan of the band, like I am, you’ve no doubt wondered what it would be like to hear some of their songs bouncing o the famous red rocks. Now you can know.

Kolacny Music on South Broadway prepares for final curtain

BY KYLE COOKE ROCKY MOUNTAIN PBS

David Kolacny does not have time to be sad. He is too busy packing.

Kolacny Music, a staple of Denver’s ever-changing South Broadway corridor, is closing its doors for good after 93 years in business. e store is o ering major discounts on instruments and accessories as they prepare to close. e doors will be locked Sept. 30.

While David’s lengthy to-do list means he is too busy to feel verklempt, generations of musicians have made the time to reach out to him.

Sitting in the side room of his expansive store in the shadow of a harp he is repairing for the Colorado Symphony, David, 68, who lives in Englewood, read an email he recently received

from a former customer.

Writing about a Spanish guitar purchased form Kolacny Music in 1963, the customer wrote, “it has been to California, Washington state, Iran, Scotland, all over England and currently lives with me in France. I play it every day and treasure every scar and mark it has acquired over 50 years. I’m so sorry to hear you are closing down. My mom passed away a long time ago, but we both thank you so much. South Denver will never be the same.”

“And I’m getting tons of this. People just show up,” David said. “ ey bring their parents in.”

Asked if that outpouring of support eased the pain of closing his doors, David said that it has always been this way. Many people, including local legends like Charlie Burrell, treated the store like a hangout over the years.

David is accustomed to people coming by just to say hello, if not to shop.

“It’s how I grew up, from the time I was a kid,” he said. “You assumed everyone’s business was like that.”

David’s grandfather, William J. Kolacny, opened the store in 1930. Kolacny Music’s original location was in the Barth Building in downtown Denver.

e family moved the business to Englewood — the Barth Building was demolished years later — before eventually settling on the corner of South Broadway and East Jewell Avenue.

e store was passed down to David’s father, who then passed it down to David, who now co-owns the business with his wife and sister. Kolacny Music became the go-to place in Denver for local school music programs to rent and repair instruments.

“Kolacny closing is just absolutely gut-wrenching,” said Keith Oxman, a saxophonist and bandleader who also works as a band teacher at Denver’s East High School. “When I heard about it, part of me just died. I’ve been going into that store [since] the 1960s.”

Despite the business’ longevity — they survived the Great Depression, World War II, and nearly a century’s worth of other nancial and global crises — the margins at Kolacny Music were always pretty thin.

“We never made a lot of money. My grandfather never had his house paid o ; he was always borrowing money to put back in the business,” David said. “If we made it through the month and had all the bills paid, we were pretty happy.

David explained that over time, participation in band and orchestra programs at local schools declined, meaning Kolacny’s clientele base did, too. e transition to online shopping was also bad for business. “People don’t come to a music store, necessarily, for every little thing anymore,” he said. “And the schools that have good programs are further out.”

“When we started, you could draw a circle around the store and that’s where all our customers were — the Denver Public Schools, the Englewood Public Schools,” David said. “But now you have to go look for the particular building in the particular district that’s got an administration that wants music and that hires a good teacher. So it’s spread out further and further. ere’s not that concentration of every school in the district [having] a great band.”

Oxman said that while enrollment

is relatively steady in the East High School band program, “the instrumentation has gotten even worse than normal.”

“I don’t know what the future is going to bring as far as all of that goes. It’s not the heyday that it was in the 70s,” he said. “I have a concert band at the end of the school day. I don’t have any trumpet players in there. at’s never happened.”

Edwina Lucero is the music instructional and curriculum specialist with Denver Public Schools. “ e emphasis on large ensembles isn’t entirely relevant to students anymore,” she said, noting that the pandemic also interrupted the musical development for many students. “In the district, we’re trying really hard to reimagine what our music education looks like.”

Combined with changing shopping habits and the evolution — and in some cases, devolution — of local music programs, the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated Kolacny’s timeline.

“We got into a big hole with the COVID thing,” David said. “We took a pretty good-sized loan with the SBA and our bookkeeper was telling us, ‘you’re never going to make enough money to pay this loan o and it’s secured by your house.’”

David and the other owners tried to sell the business, but as David put it, “nobody in the music business has the money to buy another music business.” So when a company called Alchemy o ered a fair price to buy the building and turn it into an event space, the Kolacny family accepted. e sale and impending closure has been surprisingly hard on David’s

mother, who is 97. “She just couldn’t imagine,” David said. “She worked here too, for a while.”

David is not bitter or dejected about the closure. For about 40 years, he has spent six days a week at the store. He has hardly ever taken a vacation that wasn’t related to work in some way. While he’s looking forward to some much-deserved leisure, he’s not going to stop working just yet. He built up quite the rolodex of harpists who rely on him for repairs and tune-ups, and

move, not because you want to but because ultimately you know it’s going to be safer,” Zapata said. “It’s still hard to leave your friends and family and whoever you’re leaving behind.”

Zapata said housing is often the biggest barrier for those looking to move to safer states. Colorado’s housing prices skyrocketed in recent years, making a move to the state out of reach for many families.

ough many people see Colorado as a sanctuary for LGBTQ+ people, especially compared to its neighboring states, the state is far from perfect. e United States Supreme Court, to use a recent example, recently sided with a Denver website designer who argued that designing websites for

same-sex couples violated her First Amendment rights. Moreover, several school districts have attempted to pass their own “don’t say gay,” bills as well.

Nevertheless, more families with LGBTQ+ children are deciding to move to places like Colorado.

“ ere’s a migration happening,” said Bob McCranie, owner of Texas Pride Realty Group, a realty group in Texas that focuses on selling homes to LGBTQ+ Texans. “ is is a national state of emergency for LGBTQ people.”

McCranie also connects LGBTQ+ Texans looking to leave the state with a rming realtors in other states, something he said is necessary as dozens of states cut rights for queer people.

Eventually, McCranie said, LGBTQ+ people across the country could lose rights regardless of the state they live in. McCranie said he asks clients if they’ve considered moving abroad, should conservative politicians and Supreme Court justices continue to roll back longheld rights.

“If some of these cases get overturned and the court says you can’t have gay marriage in any state, the blue states won’t be safe either,” McCranie said. “Do you have a plan for when and if that happens?”

Lucero said Kolacny’s closure should be a “wake up call” for the music education community in Denver.

“How are we going to maintain building up the future of music-making?” she wondered.

“It would be so nice to live in a place where we have strong music programs and strong music stores,” Oxman concluded. “I don’t know if that’s coming back or not, but God it would be so great if it did.”

Sacrificing to pay medical bills

BY NOAM N. LEVY KFF HEALTH NEWS

Kayce Atencio used to be haunted by a thought while working at a homeless shelter in downtown Denver.

“It could have been me,” said Atencio, 30, who lives in a small apartment with his son and daughter not far from the shelter.

It nearly was. Atencio and his children for years slept on friends’ couches or stayed with family, unable to rent an apartment because of poor credit. A big reason, he said, was medical debt.

Atencio had a heart attack at 19, triggered by an undiagnosed congenital condition. e debts from his care devastated his credit score. “It always felt like I just couldn’t get a leg up,” he said, recalling a life of dead-end jobs and high-interest loans as he tried to stay ahead of debt collectors. By 25, he’d declared bankruptcy.

Across the country, medical debt forces legions of Americans to make painful sacri ces. Many cut back on food, take on extra work, or drain retirement savings. For millions like Atencio, the health care system is threatening their very homes. at’s proven particularly devastating in communities like Denver,

where skyrocketing prices have put housing out of reach for many residents and fueled a crisis that’s left thousands homeless and sleeping on the streets.

At the Community Economic Defense Project, or CEDP, a Denver nonpro t that helps people facing eviction or home foreclosure, about two-thirds of clients have medical debt, an informal survey by KFF Health News and the organization suggests. Close to half of the nearly 70 people surveyed said medical debt played a role in their housing issue, with about 1 in 6 saying it was a major factor.

“All day long I hear about medical debt,” said Kaylee Mazza, a tenant advocate who sta s a CEDP legal clinic at the Denver courthouse that o ers aid to tenants going through eviction proceedings. “It’s everywhere.”

Nationwide, about 100 million people have some form of health care debt. Of those, about 1 in 5 said the debts have forced them to change their living situation, including moving in with friends or family, according to a 2022 KFF poll.

A growing body of evidence shows that stable housing is critical to physical and mental well-being. Some major medical systems — including several in Colorado — have even

begun investing in a ordable housing in their communities, citing the need to address what are sometimes called social determinants of health.

But as hospitals and other medical providers leave millions in debt, they inadvertently undermine community health, said Brian Klausner, a physician at a clinic serving homeless patients in Raleigh, North Carolina.

“Many of the hospitals across the country that are now publicly vowing to address health inequities and break down barriers to health are simultaneously helping to create these very problems,” Klausner said. “Nobody likes the elephant in the room, but the reality is that there are thousands of sick Americans who are likely homeless — and sick — because of medical debt.”

Medical debt can undermine housing security in several ways. For some, it depresses credit scores, making it di cult to get a lease or a mortgage. Last year, about 1 in 8 U.S. consumers with a credit report had a medical debt listed on it, according to the nonpro t Urban Institute.

Patients with chronic medical conditions may fall behind on rent or home payments as they scramble to keep medical debts in check to preserve access to health care. Many hospitals and other providers will turn away patients with outstanding

bills, KFF Health News found.

Denise Beasley, who also assists clients at CEDP in Denver, said many older people, who typically depend most on physicians and medications, believe they must pay their medical and pharmacy bills before anything else. “ e elderly are terri ed,” she said.

For others, such debt can compound nancial struggles brought on by an accident or unexpected illness that forces them to stop working, jeopardizing their health coverage or ability to pay for housing.

In Seattle, researchers found widespread medical debt among residents in homeless encampments. And those with such debt tended to experience homelessness two years longer than encampment residents without it.

More broadly, people with medical debt are more likely to say the debt has caused them to be turned down for a rental or a mortgage than people with student loans or credit card debt, according to a 2019 nationwide survey of renters, homebuyers, and property owners by real estate company Zillow.

For Atencio, who left home at 16, his struggles with medical debt began with the heart attack. He was

working at a gas station and living in Trinidad, a small city in southern Colorado near the New Mexico border.

Rushed to a local hospital, he underwent surgery. e bills, which topped $50,000, weren’t covered by his health plan because he’d unknowingly gone to an out-of-network provider, he said. “I fought it as hard as I could, but I couldn’t a ord a lawyer. I was stuck.”

Atencio, who is transgender, has close-cropped dark hair and a large tattoo on his right forearm memorializing two friends who died in a car accident. Sitting on an aging couch in an apartment with bars on the windows, he’s philosophical about his long journey from that medical crisis through years of debt and housing insecurity. “We’ve pulled ourselves out of this,” he said. “But it took a toll.”

When Atencio’s credit score dipped close to 300, the lowest rating, there were few places to turn for help. Atencio’s relationship with his parents, who divorced when he was 2, had been strained for years. Atencio got married at 18, but he and his husband rarely had enough to make ends meet. “I remember thinking, ‘What kind of a start to my adult life is this?’”

ey were ultimately taken in by Atencio’s mother-in-law. “If it wasn’t for her, we would have been homeless,” he said. But getting out from the debt was agonizing.

“You end up in this cycle,” he said. “You get into debt. en you take out loans to try to pay o some of the debt. But then there’s all this interest.” With poor credit, Atencio relied at times on payday lenders, whose high interest rates can dramatically increase what borrowers owe. Many employers also check credit scores, which made it di cult for Atencio to land anything but low-wage jobs.

e job at the shelter was a step up, and Atencio this year got the apartment, which is reserved for single-parent families at risk of being homeless. (Atencio separated from his husband last year.)

Atencio’s housing struggles are hardly unique. Jim and Cindy Powers, who live in Greeley, a small city north of Denver, saw their own housing dreams collapse after Cindy was diagnosed with a life-threatening

condition that required multiple surgeries and left the couple with more than $250,000 in medical debt.

When the Powers declared bankruptcy, the settlement protected their home. But their mortgage was sold, and the new lender rejected the payment plan. ey lost the house.

Lindsey Vance, 40, who moved to Denver ve years ago seeking more a ordable housing than the Washington, D.C., area where she was from, still can’t buy a house because of medical debts. She and her husband have a six- gure income, but medical bills for even routine care that she’s struggled to pay since her 20s have depressed her credit score, making it di cult to get a loan. “We’re stuck in a holding pattern,” she said.

In and around Denver, elected ofcials, business leaders, and others have become increasingly concerned about medical debt as they look for ways to tackle what many see as a housing crisis.

“ ese things are deeply connected,” Denver City Council member Sarah Parady said. “As housing prices have gone up and up, I’ve seen more and more people, especially people with a medical issues and debts, lose housing security.” Parady, who ran for o ce last year to address housing a ordability, is helping lead an e ort to get the city to buy and retire medical debt for city residents.

Fueled by skyrocketing prices and rising interest rates, the cost of buying a home more than doubled in Denver from 2015 to 2022, according to one recent analysis. And with rents also surging, evictions are rocketing upward after slowing during the rst two years of the pandemic. Perhaps nowhere is Denver’s crisis more visible than on the streets. e city’s downtown is dotted with tents and encampments, including one that stretches over several blocks near the shelter and clinic where Atencio used to work. By one count, metro Denver’s homeless population increased nearly 50% from 2020 to 2023.

CEDP, which was founded to help residents with housing challenges sparked by the pandemic, this year joined other Colorado consumer and patient advocates to push the legislature for stronger protections for patients with medical debt.

And in June, Colorado enacted a trailblazing bill that prohibits medical debt from being included on residents’ credit reports or factored into their credit scores, a move that

put the state at the forefront of e orts nationally to expand debt protections for patients.

A few other states are considering similar steps. And in Washington, D.C., consumer and patient advocates are pushing for federal action to limit medical bills on credit reports. In most states — including many with the highest rates of medical debt — patients still have no such protections.

For his part, Atencio is hoping the new apartment marks a turning point.

e home is modest — a small unit in an aging concrete tower. ere’s a security guard by the front door and long, linoleum corridors painted institutional blue and brown.

Atencio’s family is settling in, along with four pet rats — Stitch, Cheese, Peach, and Bubbles — who live in a large cage in the living room. “ is feels like freedom,” said Atencio.

He’s tried to give his children, who are 5 and 11, a sense of security:

home-cooked meals and the space to play or hang out in their own bedrooms. Like parents everywhere, he frets over their screen time and rolls his eyes when they critique what’s for dinner. ( ey didn’t like the potatoes he put in a pot roast.)

ey are all full-time students: Atencio, who left his job at the shelter, is working on a master’s in social work. His son just started kindergarten, and his daughter is in middle school. “I have big plans and big goals,” he said.

And with several thousand dollars of medical debt still to pay o , Atencio said he’s careful not to take his kids to an out-of-network hospital or physician. “I won’t make that mistake again,” he said.

Standley Lake football outlasts Westminster

BY DENNIS PLEUSS SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

Standley Lake coach Tyler Gallas wanted to sustain long o ensive drives ursday night in the Gators’ homecoming game against Westminster.

Junior running back Liam Graham had other plans, which included a 97-yard touchdown run that jumpstarted an eventual 34-29 victory for the Gators at the North Area Athletic Complex.

“Last week it was almost the same thing, but I got caught at the end of it,” Graham said of his 97-yard touchdown run that came with 7:31 left in the rst quarter. “ e entire time I just tried to keep picking up my feet and not get caught. It was fun. at was fun.”

Standley Lake jumped out to a 13-0 lead in the rst quarter on the legs of Graham. e junior running back had a 5-yard touchdown run less than two minutes into the game. Westminster fumbled on the rst o ensive play from scrimmage and Standley Lake sophomore Nikko Blanco recovered the loose ball on the Wolves’ 22-yard line.

“I’m just so proud of how hard they played,” Standley Lake coach

Tyler Gallas said after the win pushed the Gators’ record to 2-1 on the season. “Before the game I talked about, ‘Are you were willing to sacri ce the e ort necessary to get you a homecoming win?’ ey did.”

Westminster answered the quick start by the Gators behind junior Mason Kiewiet. e Wolves’ quarterback had a pair of touchdown runs (16 and 53 yards), along with a touchdown pass to senior Hunter Emgarten to give Westminster a 2120 lead at halftime.

However, Standley Lake had a key scoring drive to open the second half. e Gators chewed up the majority of the third quarter and capped o a 9-play drive with a 10-yard touchdown run by senior Dorsey Satter eld to give Standley Lake a 26-21 lead.

Westminster had a long drive too in the third quarter, but the Gators’ defense forced a turnover on downs at Standley Lake’s 8-yard line.

“Our defense de ntely played great in that second half,” Graham said.

Standley Lake’s o ense went on a 92-yard scoring drive that took nearly 9 minutes o the clock.

e Gators gave a heavy dose of Graham and Satter eld on the nal scoring drive on the night for Standley Lake.

On the 15th play of the drive — 4th-down from the 2-yard line — it was ruled by the sideline judge that Graham just reached the ball to touch the end zone for his third touchdown of the night.

e Gators took a 34-21 lead with 3:53 left in the game.

“He is special the way he sees the game,” Gallas said of the Gators’ leading running back who has seven touchdowns on the season and well over 500 yards on the ground through three games. “It is his second year in our system. He is really starting to understand the o ense as a whole and what we are trying to do upfront.”

Junior Boston Harris was also special for Standley Lake. Harris stepped in at quarterback for senior Braden Smith, who su ered an injury in the Gators’ victory over Skyline last week.

Harris not only was solid at quarterback, but had two key interceptions on defense. Harris picked o Kiewiet on the nal play of the rst half at the goal-line to prevent the Wolves from take a 2-score lead

into halftime. He then had a second pick with under 4 minutes to play to help seal the win.

“You show me another quarterback who is going to be playing both ways this weekend,” Gallas said of Harris. “What a man of composure. He is always even-keeled and always ready to go. He leads by example.”

Gallas said he hopes to have Smith back on the eld next week at quarterback, but Harris proved he is capable to go under center.

“I just love Boston. He is just such a great athlete,” Graham said. “He knows what he is doing on the eld. It’s great playing with him.”

Standley Lake will try to run its winning streak to three games next week when the Gators host Northglenn (2-0 record) at 4 p.m. Friday, Sept. 15, at NAAC.

“We are growing every single week,” Gallas said. “We have a tough Northglenn team ahead of us.”

Westminster (2-2) is back home next week to face Prairie View (1-1) on Friday, Sept. 15.

Soccer: Fort Lupton freshman adjusts to varsity play

BY STEVE SMITH SSMITH@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Archie Gonzalez has a special distinction this soccer season. He is the only freshman on the roster of the Fort Lupton High School varsity team.

“Here, the ball moves quick and all that. You have to make quick choices,” Gonzalez said after his team shut out Bennett 3-0 on Sept. 7. “You have to make sure you have great runs and make great choices. You have to have a great mindset.”

At rst, that was di cult, but he’s coming around, he said.

“I had a bad mindset,” Gonzalez

said. “My coach (Kyle Reddy) is always talking to me. My mindset has changed. Now, I’m getting better chances to score, better touches. I am more comfortable.

“If I’m all mad at myself, then I’m not going to play great,” Gonzalez added. “If I have fun, I’ll play better. I have had better touches. I’ve had better playing style with all the people I play with, better chemistry.”

e Bluedevils won three and tied two of their rst six matches. Reddy was pleased with the record, to a point.

“I see the potential these boys have. But we haven’t lived up to

it yet,” he said. “Our biggest adversary is ourselves. We’re getting in our heads every single game. And once we get in our heads and the refs get in our heads, that’s when we let down. is team has tremendous talent. ey need to believe in the process in me and themselves.”

Reddy said undoing the mental block is a matter of mentoring.

“I know what it takes to be a state champion (Reddy was on Broomeld’s state title-winning team in 2007). I’ve also lost in the state championship game,” he said. “I’ve seen the best. I’ve seen the worst. You have to take it with a grain of

salt and be humbled. You have to keep moving forward.”

rough those six contests, Gonzalez was looking for his rst varsity-level points. Gonzalez has been playing soccer since he was 3. It may explain why there’s no sense of intimidation.

“It’s really nice. It’s pretty fun, actually,” Gonzalez said. “We mess around. But whenever we’re in the game, they play well, and that makes my mind happy. It makes me smile.”

AIR QUALITY

reduce greenhouse gases for at least seven years. ey also say a trading plan to allow the 18 sites on the list to buy carbon credits to meet the rules is a game where the same side always loses: low-income and highminority neighborhoods disproportionately impacted by decades of harmful pollutants.

e idea of a big company like Suncor buying carbon credits from a greener company instead of cutting pollution at their own facility, next to those beleaguered neighbors, is only one objection environmental groups are bringing to an Air Quality Control Commission vote at the Sept. 20-22 meetings.

e main topic for the commission’s meeting is the proposed rule ful lling a mandate from the 2021 legislature requiring 20% cuts by 2030 in the greenhouse gas emissions of a third tier of Colorado’s largest polluters. e by-far largest polluters, utilities, were targeted in previous legislation and rules, while the second tier of only four industrial sources was regulated — controversially — by rules passed in 2021.

State health department sta ers’ justi cation for regulating the next 18 industrial sources in September’s vote says disproportionately impacted, or DI, communities are well protected by the draft regulations, and will breathe easier from the carbon dioxide cuts and from drops in other pollutants that are a side bene t of attacking carbon.

e state’s rules say the next companies targeted will only be able to buy credits to ful ll their cuts if they’ve proven they’ve installed all possible cost-e ective pollution control measures.

What’s “cost e ective” when it comes to pollution is not exactly a settled question.

Groups that ght for DI communities say the whole point of environmental justice provisions embedded in climate laws is to cut pollution right where it has hurt people most. Nor does setting the “social cost” of carbon at $89 a ton account for heat exposure and high rates of asthma, heart problems and other ailments in Colorado’s industrial neighborhoods, according to rule comments by GreenLatinos, Environmental Defense Fund

and others.

e EDF points out another troubling aspect of the state’s proposed rule: Because of how and when the benchmarks were set, the 18 companies as a group will actually be allowed to increase their greenhouse gas emissions slightly before steeper cuts kick in for 2030.

“As a result of the in ated baseline and modest interim reduction targets, the proposed rule would allow half of the facilities to increase emissions or make no reductions, relative to current levels, for the next six years,” the EDF said. at outs the urgency of the climate change problem and state laws demanding that reductions start now, the nonpro t says.

Even the state’s draft, revised after expert comments, would let the group of 18 facilities “emit nearly 1.2 million tons more climate pollution over the decade than if pollution from these industries stayed at where they are today,” said Katie Schneer, Colorado based senior climate analyst for EDF. “ at equates to an increase of 9% above today’s pollution levels from these facilities in each year leading up to 2030, with only a 5% reduction in 2030.”

A group of state lawmakers who say they wrote and pushed through the 2021 industrial pollution legislation sent a letter to the AQCC warning the division’s draft rules would not achieve the required greenhouse gas cuts, and won’t shield the industries’ neighbors from the co-pollutants produce alongside carbon.

“ e current draft deviates signi cantly from the intent of the law we worked to pass,” said the letter, signed by Capitol leaders including Sen. Faith Winter, D-Westminster; Rep. Jennifer Bacon, D-Denver; and, Rep. Elizabeth Velasco, DGlenwood Springs, and 13 others.

e environmental groups’ redlining of state draft rules all emphasize the need for speed.

“Given the cumulative buildup of carbon pollution in the atmosphere, rapid reductions in greenhouse gases are crucial for limiting the overall amount of warming we will experience,” the EDF said.

Colorado’s Air Pollution Control Division Director Michael Ogletree said state sta are continuing to revise the draft rules in regard to environmental and industry comments, and will continue revisions right up to the commission’s hearing date.

e largest annual carbon emitters in the state are utilities burning coal, and their steep mandated cuts are on pace and handled in a separate series of regulations.

So what big corporations are the industrial targets in these latest climate rules? Industrial manufacturing polluters were rst targeted in a set of rules called Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Energy Management for Manufacturing or GEMM 1.

at rst industrial phase sought carbon cuts from only four major sources in the state: ree cementmaking kilns, and Pueblo’s Evraz steel plant, each putting out more than 50,000 tons of carbon a year.

ose industries got some special breaks along with the required emissions audits and cuts, because they are considered “energy intensive and trade exposed,” meaning they can claim it’s hard to clean up their fuel source without raising expenses to a point where foreign competition

puts them out of business.  is month’s vote is for GEMM 2, a ecting 18 more corporations whose facilities put out 25,000 tons or more of carbon. It’s a list of familiar companies: JBS Swift, Western Sugar, Suncor, Molson Coors, Cargill, Anheuser-Busch, Leprino Foods. Together, the 18 put out about 2.4 million tons of carbon dioxide a year, while Colorado’s overall carbon output across all sources was about 126 million tons in 2020.

“We oppose trading schemes and cost thresholds that allow corporations to avoid improvements that will improve the local environmental quality for the communities that surround them,” said Ean Tafoya, Colorado director for GreenLatinos. “We are especially concerned that the Colorado Energy O ce is backing an industry proposal to pay to pollute in communities rather than protect communities like the Environmental Justice Act requires.”
