Arn Menconi is running for U.S. Senate. He is a former Democrat who switched to the Green Party after seeing how it has changed, with little regard for citizens’ needs now.
Menconi is a two-time county commissioner from Eagle County with a masters in business administration and a focus on the environment and social justice. Menconi has a long history of activism.
Menconi is anti-fracking and supports getting off fossil fuels, phasing in alternative sources of energy since the cost is now about the same as fossil fuels. Menconi is against Amendment 71, “raise the bar,” designed to stop citizens from getting anything onto the ballot, raising the necessary number of signatures from 100,000 to 200,000.
None of the three citizens’ initiatives focused on fracking got on the ballot. They fell short of the 100,000. Gas and oil got double the amount needed for 71. Its petitioners are paid handsomely. Deep pockets would make all our future laws.
Menconi wants free college, K-16, and to forgive student debt since we bailed the banks out for $16 trillion in 2008. Menconi is pro ColoradoCare.
Menconi wants to end “endless war,” killing countless innocent people worldwide which helps support our government’s military industrial complex. Menconi wants to balance the military budget using the excess to help citizens in the U.S. He wants to change this weapons-based economy
