Who’s Fighting Amendment 49 Now?

Yesterday we filed a complaint with the Secretary of State against the ridiculously named “Coloradans for Middle Class Relief.” They are a registered group opposing only Amendment 47, however they have been floating print and radio ads against Amendments 49 and 54 as well (exactly how opposing these Amendments is “for middle class relief” is beyond me). This is in direct violation of campaign laws. Both the Rocky Mountain News and Denver Post reported on our complaint this morning, with the Post citing,
The complaint alleges the issue committee violated a campaign-finance law, which could result in a penalty of $50 per day from the date of infraction.
$50 per day? Wow! I bet that’ll burn up the union coffers. I wonder if they can afford such devastating fines, you know with having been given $3 million this month alone.
And that my friends, is their MO. Break all the campaign finance laws you want, because in the end, you’ve got a never ending supply of money. And by the time the story ever gets out, it’s past election day and no one cares.
