LWVLC Strengthening the Public Health System Forum

The League of Women Voters of Larimer County will host a forum on the Public Health System in Colorado on Wednesday, October 27 at 5:00 PM online.

The public health system in Colorado and around the country has been challenged and, in many cases, threatened during the COVID pandemic. The need to de-politicize public health has been shown in the many attempts to override public health expertise and evidence in favor of political expediency. Public health leaders will present their ideas on the value of evidence-based decision making and other strategies to maintain a solid public health system to protect our communities. Representative Cathy Kipp will speak to political strategies and plans to support public health.

The panel of guest speakers will include:

☆  Glen Mays, PhD, MPH - Professor and chair of the Department of Health Systems, Management and Policy, Colorado School of Public Health. His research examines the organization, financing, and delivery of public health services and their impact on population health.
☆  Tom Gonzales, MPH, REHS - Public Health Director of the Larimer County Department of Health and Environment. He was formerly the Deputy Public Health Director at El Paso County Public Health, and Manager of Environment Health at Clark County Public Health in Washington State.
☆  Jeff Zayach, MS - Former Executive Director of the Boulder County Public Health Department. Prior to that appointment, he was the Environmental Health Director for Boulder. He has been in leadership positions with the major public health associations of Colorado.
☆  Jackie Brown, RN, MSN, FNP - Former public health director for Prowers County, serving 3 rural southeast Colorado counties. She also served as the Chief of Clinical Operations for Southeast Behavioral Health, serving 6 counties in Southeast Colorado.
☆  State Representative Cathy Kipp - House District 52 in Larimer County. She serves on the House Education, Finance, and Appropriations Committees. She has carried important public health legislation which became law.
☆  Moderator: Lee Thielen, MPA + Former Associate Director of the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment and former Executive Director of the Colorado Association of Local Public Health Officials and the Public Health Alliance, as well as a nationally known consultant in public health.

The Colorado Independent Legislative Redistricting Commission has approved final Colorado State House District and Colorado State Senate District maps. They will submit them to the Colorado Supreme Court for approval by October 22. October 22 is also the deadline for court challenges to be filed. The Colorado Supreme Court must issue an opinion on these Legislative maps by November 15.

You can view the latest Legislative maps on the Colorado Independent Redistricting Commissions' website here.

The final approved CONGRESSIONAL redistricting map was submitted by the Colorado Independent Congressional Redistricting Committee to the Colorado Supreme Court before the September 30 deadline.

Some background:
•  "In 2018, with the passage of Amendments Y and Z, Coloradans resoundingly said they wanted lines drawn in a different, independent way. This roadshow of public hearings is an important piece of this work and is an opportunity for Coloradans to have their voices heard," said Commissioner JulieMarie Shepherd Macklin. "Residents are the experts of their own communities and, as these plans come together, we need public input and involvement to ensure that the maps best represent the Colorado of today."
•  The U.S. Census Bureau released the actual 2020 U.S. Census data on August 12. Now the Colorado Independent Redistricting Commissions will work to finish drawing the new Congressional and Legislative maps using this data.

Communicating Effectively With Your Representative

On the subject of action alerts, here are some helpful tips on how to contact your representatives effectively from the Jefferson County League's newsletter:

A quick telephone call to your representative is easiest. Most legislators count calls supporting or opposing bills and those from their own constituents count the most.

Email is another good way to communicate with your legislator. Here are some tips to communicate your position to your representative:
• State the bill number in the subject line
• Keep the email short and to the point
• If you have a personal story relevant to the issue, include it
• Use bullets when possible to make it more readable

Climate Change Resolution is Adopted
       at June National Convention

We congratulate League of Women Voters of Arapahoe and Douglas Counties members Amy Sherwood and Lena Brown. Because of their efforts, their strong climate change resolution was adopted by the delegates at the League of Women Voters of the United States's 2020 National Convention.

The resolution calls for "an immediate, wide-scale mobilization by the United States to restore, protect and fund an ecologically sustainable environment and climate, based on an interrelated approach that is environmentally sound, science-based, just and equitable, and dedicated to appropriately addressing the speed and scale of the global climate change emergency."

The resolution was based on the League's position regarding climate change, but additionally took into account the need for speed and a response based on science. According to Brown and Sherwood, this gives League a working document when it takes a seat at the table.

The resolution also addresses environmental justice and equity, which the League of Women Voters promotes as part of its diversity, equity and inclusion policy, as issues to be included when considering solutions.

Their success comes after two years of work toward adoption of this resolution.

The League of Women Voters of Arapahoe and Douglas Counties Program Committee is working to arrange a climate change presentation by Sherwood and Brown explaining this important resolution.

Vote411.org Wins Webby Award

VOTE411.org has won a Webby People's Voice Award for Best Government & Civil Innovation Website as part of the 24th annual awards.

"We work to make critical election information more accessible to millions of voters every step of the way to the ballot box," said Virginia Kase, CEO of the League of Women Voters Education Fund. "To win the Webby People's Voice Award means so much because it is recognition from the public who value our site. This honor helps bring more visibility to VOTE411, a resource every voter can trust for accurate and unbiased information this and every election cycle."

Since 2006, VOTE411 has provided registration deadlines and tools, absentee and early voting information, polling place locations, voting hours, candidate information, and more. Late last year, the League of Women Voters launched the newly redesigned VOTE411.org, with the mission to serve every voter in America with critical election information in 2020. There is voter information in English and Spanish.

"The coronavirus pandemic has had a major impact on primary elections, but it's never been more important for voters to make sure their voices are heard at the ballot box," said Jeanette Senecal, Senior Director of Mission Impact for the League of Women Voters Education Fund. "In this critical election year, VOTE411 is expected to reach one in five people in the United States before November 3. This award is a testament to the time and dedication our League volunteers around the country put into making sure voters have accurate election information."

For more information, see the Webby award page.
