For Change

Now more than ever, we need leaders who are accountable to the people — not special interests.

Ron Tupa at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado

I’m a CU graduate and a former public school teacher. I was a Colorado state legislator affiliated with the Democratic Party for 14 years. But when I supported the views of my constituents against the party line, they removed me from leadership roles. I believe politicians should serve the people, not their party.
