Here’s how Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado’s 3rd Congressional district represents (her) constituents.
In an article on her website entitled “Fighting Wildfires and Droughts,” she boasts of a censure bill against the president for “derelection” of duty at the border (I hope she spelled dereliction right in the bill). She also comes up with some interesting statistics of the “border crisis.” Arrests for murder increased 1,233%, she claims.
She’s not supporting critical race theory because 79% of her town hall meeting survey said it should not be taught in public schools. The EPA under Biden is out as she does not support the Clean Water Act, but clearly defines her position as “fighting for water rights” (pollution vs. profits?).
Her religious views (and life choices) are represented in not supporting Biden’s budget proposal, as it does not ban federal tax dollars from assisting poor people (think Medicaid) in abortion assistance. As a pregnant teen and high-school dropout, perhaps Boebert thinks this course in life should be protected by keeping other women from making different choices?
Finally, on fires and droughts, “As a proud member of the Committee on Natural Resources,” Boebert said, she “ensured the proper resources are being deployed.” She also mentioned plans to work on an “active forest management plan,” which I’m pretty sure already exists if she were to check with the U.S. Forest Service.
So, catch her mobile office hours at a remote rural town near you.
