GOP legislators object to GOP-backed rules
Wednesday, August 15 at 9:42 AM

Kudos to Bill Gonzales and his team for doing their jobs by issuing the (small “p”) policy that clarifies the existing rules (“GOP irate at union access,” Aug. 11). As the director of personnel and administration, Gonzales is responsible for ensuring that all state departments are complying with State Personnel Board rules.
Without actually naming it, the Rocky’s story refers to Board Rule 1-18, which was part of Republican Gov. Bill Owens administration’s approved rules (April 2005).
As usual, young Republican lawmakers Josh Penry and Cory Gardner show their passion for GOP political rhetoric and their ignorance about Colorado state laws and regulations. What a waste of Colorado taxpayer dollars that we pay these inexperienced legislators’ salaries.

I sure don't see any Rethugs fighting for the workers of this state.

Dravur,

I hate to break this to you, but the Republican party is much better at raising money through special interests.

That's why Republican politicians are always talking about big tax cuts -- but the only real tax relief always goes to big corporations.

C, how do you give tax cuts to people who don't pay taxes? If a family of four making $40K a year only has a pre-deduction tax of $4500, and after taking Bush's child tax credits, personal exemption, etc, and has not tax liablity, how do you cut their taxes.

You would rather take away their child tax credits and have them pay taxes.
