The El Paso County Democratic Party gives a firm nod to Yes on 2C, and what a sensible suggestion it is! Colorado Springs wants to continue its current 0.57% sales tax—yes, the same one you’ve already been paying—to keep our roads from turning into something more suited to a Regency-era carriage than a modern car. No new taxes, no rate hikes, just a simple extension to keep the funds flowing for road repairs and improvements through 2035. With a citizen advisory committee overseeing the spending, this is a clever way to maintain the streets we all rely on, without making your purse feel any lighter. Quite the responsible offer, wouldn’t you agree?
