Jefferson Parkway Mr. Tyler, I just wanted to applaud your recent article in YourHub regarding the Jefferson Parkway. I live in District 25 and feel we need more voices like yours against this project. The blind eye turned to the NW Parkway and the short sighted approach demonstrated by the City of Arvada, I can only hope will be offset by your efforts and those of Boulder, Superior etc. Thanks again, Eric Stevens Submitted By: Eric Stevens

HB 1001 Are there any provisions in HB 1001 that would restrict importing renewable energy from another state to meet the new requirements? Thanks! Submitted By: Kari V. Grant

HB 1001 Renewable Energy Dear Representative Miller, The national stimulus bill is projected to save/create 2.5 million jobs at a cost of $900 billion. At a cost of $360,000/job and no idea for how long these jobs will last, this is viewed as a success. HB 1001 may create 33,500 jobs at a cost of $4.3 billion or $130,000/job. Quite a bargain compared to the national bill. Again for how long will these jobs last? I believe that with this bill you have misidentified a problem and then used job creation as a rationalization. The government's record for identifying and addressing energy policy issues is poor. Recently the ethanol program has to be viewed as an utter waste of taxpayer money. It did create jobs at ethanol plants, so by that measure it is a success, but at what cost? However, relative to the cost, I submit that this program is an utter failure and an embarrassment to anyone serious about energy policy. In these difficult austere times, other states are realizing they cannot afford to

I would like to know why you are attacking Payday Loan businesses with this new bill and not directing your energy towards reforming the banking industry. There are a lot more American citizens that are bank customers than payday loan customers. Those bank customers are faced with ridiculous overdraft fees, think about a $35 fee on a $1.95 cup of coffee. That's a lot higher than the payday loan example you have been throwing around. 1700%+ IR is much higher than 161% IR (per your example) that you are trying to protect people against. Also look into the frequency that banks can charge this overdraft fee, much higher than the highly regulated payday loan industry. The payday loan business is around because people can't pay these high banking fees. I can't wait to see bankruptcy claims go up when this bill passes, can't wait to pay for it either. Since I know your mind is already made up I've made mine up as well. I will not be voting for you again, as I feel you have a

Greeting Representative Tyler, my family has recently moved into the disctrict your district. I was writing to voice my concern of the growing number of medical Marijuana dispensaries we see. I have no issue with any person getting any medicine they need. I would just like to see it treated like other prescribed medicines and dipsensed at pharmacy. Such as King Soopers or Walgreens. Thank you. Submitted By: Michael

Representative Tyler, My name is Katherine and I am currently a social work student at the University of Denver. I am enrolled in a policy advocacy class, and I have decided to track House Bill 10-1001, a bill which you sponsored, for a project. I have a few questions regarding this bill, and I would greatly appreciate any information you can provide for me. First, I understand that this bill addresses the need for utilities companies in Colorado to increase their use of renewable energy sources. I also understand it would encourage homeowners to install solar panels. However, I am unsure as to exactly what underlying problem this legislation hopes to address. Is it pollution? Problems with power shortages? Spending? Or is the bill simply addressing Coloradoʻs reliance on fossil fuels? Also, will this bill have a greater effects on a certain population in Colorado, or will everyone benefit equally? I have a few more questions regarding supporters and opponents of the

Such a gift you are with your energy bills - can you consider Veterans Incarcerated being able to learn solar enegy business ownership so, upon re-entry, they can qualify for preference in government grants? The War Widows Submitted By: Chaplain Mary Murphy

Representative Tyler, I am a lifelong Colorado Springs resident who is actively involved in the nascent solar energy industry in Colorado Springs. Is it too late to request that municipal utilities like Colorado Springs Utilities be included in the increased requirement? For the past year, I have been lobbying the Colorado Springs City Council sitting as the Utility Board to increase the funding for solar energy in the Springs to create jobs. When can we talk next week to discuss more ideas? Respectfully Submitted, Sam Masias 719-313-7876 Submitted By: Sam Masias
