John Hickenlooper, a former geologist turned brew-pub owner, has had an unconventional path to public office. As mayor and governor, he turned the economy around, expanded health care, and fought climate change. In the Senate, he passed the largest investment in fighting climate change.

Policy Priorities

Hickenlooper is dead-set on stopping Trump’s lawlessness and protecting Colorado. He aims to end Trump’s cost-of-living emergency and lower prices for working families by fixing the health care system and creating a public option. He also plans to empower Medicare to negotiate all drug prices and root out fraud and abuse.

Hickenlooper believes that protecting Colorado from Trump and addressing the president’s cost-of-living emergency and health care crisis are top priorities for Colorado voters. However, he also thinks that the Trump administration’s attacks on workers’ rights have been overlooked. He has introduced legislation to overturn Trump’s union-busting executive orders to help millions of workers exercise their fundamental right to fair pay and better working conditions.
