Over the years, GreenLatinos Colorado, our members, and our allies have banded together to advocate for a life free of toxic pollution and an environment that nurtures biodiversity. 

By doing this, we allow the planet and our families to thrive. This year we supported pieces of legislation that will improve the quality of life of every Coloradan by reducing air emissions from big polluters, expanding transit accessibility, and helping everyday Coloradans prepare their homes and cars for the transition to clean green energy.

We want to invite you to join us as we recap the legislative session and share updates from our allies on the Western Slope!

A lo largo de los años GreenLatinos Colorado, nuestros miembros, y nuestros aliados nos hemos unido para abogar por una vida libre de contaminación tóxica y un medio ambiente que nutra la biodiversidad. 

Al hacer esto, permitimos que el planeta y nuestras familias prosperen. Este año hemos apoyado leyes que mejorarán la calidad de vida de todos los coloradenses reduciendo las emisiones atmosféricas de los grandes contaminadores, ampliando la accesibilidad del transporte público y ayudando a los coloradenses a preparar sus casas y sus coches para la transición a una energía limpia y ecológica.

Queremos invitarte a unirte al repaso de la sesión legislativa y a compartir las actualizaciones de nuestros aliados en el oeste del estado.
