About Protect Colorado’s Future:
Protect Colorado’s Future (PCF) is a diverse group of community, grassroots, and policy organizations working to enact a fairer tax code that enables the state to invest in the things families need — education, child care, and health care to provide families with successful economic opportunities. We are a coalition committed to a fair and thriving Colorado.
Colorado’s outdated flat tax system is underfunding the essential services families rely on—schools, childcare, health care, transportation, and more. Meanwhile, the wealthiest households and large corporations continue benefiting from tax rules that don’t reflect today’s realities. We’re working to update the system so it works for everyone, not just the top 3%. Get to know us: Website | Facebook | Instagram
