The 3rd district is the poorest and most overlooked part of Colorado. We need to utilize every source of federal funds available to improve our infrastructure and economic future. Recently, our Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-District 3), refused to apply for federal earmarks because they go against her principals.

She says she has other sources of funding ... great. But while other states will be getting and using the tax dollars we paid into the system, we will go without. I thought that our representative in the House was supposed to be on our side?
